Dear Friend,
Shalom and
warmest
greetings to
you from our
God the
Father and
the Lord
Jesus the
Messiah.
Thank you
very much
for your
partnership
with us.
Thank you
very much
for your
support by
prayers and
financial
giving. May
your faith
never be
shaken and
may God of
Abraham,
Isaac, and
Jacob, God
of Israel
bless you
abundantly!
Summer is
over and we
are just
ready for
the Gods
Fall Feasts
– Tishrei
month
Holidays. On
September 22
(Elul
25-Tishrei
1), from
sunset, we
are going to
begin
celebrate
the The
Feast of Yom
Teruah
(Feast of
Sounding of
the Shofar
or by
Rabbinical
tradition
Rosh-Ha
Shana-
Jewish New
5786 Year) ,
and ten days
later, we
will
celebrate
Yom Kippur
(Day of
Atonement),
and finish
with Sukkoth
(Feast of
Tabernacles).
All of these
feasts have
prophetic
meaning
regarding
Rapture of
the church,
Tribulation,
Repentance
and
salvation of
Israel, and
the return
of the
Messiah. The
ancient
rabbis held
a similar
view: “In
the month of
Nisan (at
Passover),
our
ancestors
were
redeemed,
and in
Tishrei
(Rosh
Ha-Shana),
they will be
redeemed in
the time to
come”. Also,
they say:”
And it is
the ram’s
horn that
the Holy
One, blessed
be he, is
destined to
blow when
the son of
David, our
righteous
one, will
reveal
himself, as
it said ‘And
the Lord God
will blow
the horn’ “.
Our
congregation
always
celebrates
Feasts of
the Lord,
and we will
use these
opportunities
to witness
to people
about The
Messiah
Yeshua.
In the month
of August,
we witnessed
by God’s
grace to
more than a
several
thousand
people. In
Seattle WA,
we went to
share the
Gospel at
Pike Market.
We had a lot
of
aggression
towards me,
mainly by
LGBT through
some
physical
abuse. One
of them took
NT, put it
in his
mouth, and
started
destroying
it with his
teeth. I
told him to
stop, but he
started
screaming
very loudly.
His
screaming
was not by
man but by
demons. We
need to
remember
that there
is a
spiritual
war and we
need to
fight for
the Kingdom
of our Lord
Jesus
Christ.
Another man
started to
throw
tomatoes at
me. When
security
saw, they
were
involved,
but their
supervisor
declined a
NT I offered
him. He told
me that he
is a Pagan
and does not
need the
Word of God.
While
witnessing,
we had
pressure.
Even some
business
owners were
very angry
that we
shared Good
News. After
we finished,
we were very
happy that
even through
aggression
and attacks,
God gave us
love and we
distributed
some Bibles
to those who
wanted to
have the
Word.
In York and
Harrisburg
PA, together
with youth
from a
Russian
local
church, we
had outreach
for two
days. On the
first day in
York, we
went
downtown. We
met some
homeless
people who
accepted
Bibles, and
one of them
was a
Muslim.
Afterwards,
we went to a
small
stadium
where a
baseball
game was
going to
start. We
witnessed
and
distributed
some NT’s
and other
evangelical
literature
to those who
were there
and waiting
in line.
Some of them
who took
Holy
Scripture
never had
one before.
On the
second day,
with around
25 people,
we went to
Harrisburg
downtown
where we met
a lot of
people. We
divided by
several
teams and
went
different
directions
to reach
people. We
asked
questions,
prayed for
people, gave
some food
and gift
cards, but
most
importantly,
we
distributed
Bibles.
After we
finished,
each team
gave their
report. It
was a big
blessing,
especially
for the
youth who
for some of
them was
their first
time doing
outreach in
their own
area.
In Cleveland
Airport, I
met a Rabbi
from New
York. We had
a
conversation
for about
15-20
minutes. At
the end, I
offered him
NT, but he
declined.
Anyway, I
remember how
he was
listening
about Yeshua
without
interrupting
me, and I
know for
sure he will
think about
it by God's
mercy.
Thank you
very much
for your
kindness and
faithfulness,
partnership
and prayers.
Our donation
giving for
the last
month was
very very
low and very
less than
what we need
every month.
Please pray
as we need
more
supporters
to continue.
I know that
God will
provide and
we are
thankful for
everything.
If The Lord
leads you to
help us
financially

the work of
Bethel from

All
donations
are Tax
deductible
and you’ll

Please
continue to
pray for my
family,
especially
for my sons
Daniel and
Anbar.
Rafael is
recovering
from the
surgery but
needs a lot
of prayers
too.
Thank you
and God
bless you.
Happy
Holidays and
Happy Jewish
New 5786
Year. Shana
