A Blessed Visit...

Psalms 68:4-5
 Sing to Elohim, sing praises to His Name. Raise up a highway for Him 
Who rides through the deserts, By His Name Yah, And exult before Him.
Father of the fatherless, And Right-ruler of widows, Is Elohim in His set-apart dwelling.


Isaiah 1:17
 “Learn to do good! Seek right-ruling, reprove the oppressor, 
defend the fatherless, plead for the widow. 

 Our sister Carmen came back from Nicaragua to visit us. YHVH gave her the ability to return and visit us, and we were very blessed and happy to have her here again.We had a great time with her, speaking about Abba's Word daily and learning about how she lived in Nicaragua in the past.










 Zechariah 7:9-10
 “Thus said YHVH of hosts, ‘Execute true right-ruling, 
show kindness and compassion everyone to his brother. 
“Do not oppress the widow or the fatherless, the stranger or the poor.
 And do not plot evil in your hearts against one another.ʼ  
 
She is an amazing woman who has gone through a lot in her life, and it was great to hear about all the things she had to go through back in the day in Nicaragua. She lived through the Nicaraguan Revolution (also called the National Sandinista Revolution) and she had to go through a lot during that time. She told us about her husband and how he was forced to fight in the war and how they lived during that time.

 James 1:26-27
 If anyone among you thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue 
 but deceives his own heart, this oneʼs religion is worthless. 
 Clean and undefiled religion before the Elohim and Father is this:
 to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world. 
Her wisdom shows in her widowed white hairs and actions. Thank you for the support sent to the poor widows. She is also a great host for those who visit her town in Nicaragua. She was such a blessing to have and we pray she will be able to return.
She said after receiving the offering: "I know brother Jesus that what you teach me and say to the local people is the Truth from the Scriptures."

 Hermana Carmen qualifies to be a true widow, having no children or husband to care for her. She has no pension or ways to make a living. She is a widow of a Pastor and today she continues to preach the Word.
If YHVH puts it in your heart to bless her and other widows, please go to:

May YHVH Bless you so much more!

Until next time...

Shalom!

e-Missions Outreach


 Shalom Again!

e-Missions Outreach have been born out of a need. Last blog we posted was about a need to be able to reach people with no access to the internet with teachings in their language. A Brother's Keeper would bring him/her to the Truth. James/Ya'acov 5:19-20  Brothers, if anyone among you goes astray from the truth, and someone turns him back, let him know that he who turns a sinner from the straying of his way shall save a life from death and cover a great number of sins.

 HalleluYAH!!!



As we struggle to find support as offerings we have to think out of the box. We first used USB and Micro SD cards as an idea. This has developed into a larger tool for Abba YHWH and His Kindom to come. Now we will be able to share with even those who have no TV or computers the teachings Abba YHWH has given to other ministries. We could make our own but that comes with limited knowledge of technology and resources. Soon we will make our own teachings to further reach those far from our town. YHWH is using others from our loving family of believers to help.


 "Amazing avenue that has opened. I could only find one similar story where a missionary was teaching at a village. A local village that were not the most friendly heard of the missionary being around. Not wanting to cause "trouble" they stayed away...but still wanted to know. A tradesman that was somehow friendly with both took an electronic device, similar to this to the neighboring village. They burned through 25 hours of teaching and begged for more.  

This is an easy no-brainer for torah-observant/hebrew roots type folks. As we have discussed, these devices have approximately 50 videos, all in Spanish, from Jim Staley, 119 Ministries, and Michael Rood. Hebrew/Spanish songs from Paul Wilbur. As well as other important topics in audio form concerning wedding/matrimony covenant and more." Via Philip Warren, e-Missions Outreach

Soon here in CR we will be able to use what others considered obsolete phones as a tool for the Kingdom of YAH. Imagine what we could do with resources. $5 here $15 these could help us reach more people in different countries. Time is short!

 Isa 6:8  And I heard the voice of יהוה, saying, “Whom do I send, and who would go for Us?” And I said, “Here am I! Send me.”


May YHWH bless you and keep you

Sharing! Thinking our of the Box!

What is a Brothers Keeper?

We started this journey showing compassion and mercy to those we met. Seeking to fill their physical needs to gain their trust to reach their lives with the only thing we can give them that can change their lives. We also learned that these Truth that can set them free has to be received and walked like Messiah walked. People in developed countries have all kinds of technology from video, e-sword, smart phones, ect. As a Brother's Keeper we also teach the Way, Truth and Life... Torah Life! We have to think out of the box. We could not give them a website to go or build a Congregational Building. The issue here is how to be able to draw people to the King of the Universe through His Son. How can I leave a brother or sister in their sin? Would I be a good "keeper"?

We had been asking ministries that had Spanish teachings to send us some DVD's or CD's to share with these people. Since for many circumstances and even people seeking to pay for them, we could not find anyone who could send us some. We prayed and asked ourselves, how can we do it? We are not computer tech people but a sister's TV broke. We have no TV in the farm. Today's TV's are very different and come with USB drives. We though that just maybe we could download videos and they could see it on TV at home. So we did a trial run. We took our USB Flash Drive that had some videos downloaded in it. Our youngest son is more Tech savy than us older parents. He went and checked it out and IT WORKED! HalleluYAH!
 Psalm 19:7 - 10 The Torah of יהוה is perfect, bringing back the being; The witness of יהוה is trustworthy, making wise the simple; The orders of יהוה are straight, rejoicing the heart; The command of יהוה is clear, enlightening the eyes; The fear of יהוה is clean, standing forever; The right-rulings of יהוה are true, They are righteous altogether, More desirable than gold, Than much fine gold; And sweeter than honey and the honeycomb.
We bought one of these, not exactly as the one shown. We downloaded about 12 teachings from ministries like 119, PFT, one movie "The Boy in the Striped Pajamas" and took them to our brother and sister. They had a wonderful Shabbat full of more teaching than what we could teach in months.We may have no money to pay for physical improvements of their needs but Not by Bread alone man shall Live, but by Every Word that comes from the mouth of YHWH.

Psalm 119:72  The Torah of Your mouth is better to me Than thousands of gold and silver pieces.
Psalm 119:127  Therefore I have loved Your commands More than gold, even fine gold!

In this way we can share many, many teachings on a re-writable device and even when technology is very limited in our side of the world we can make a difference using what is already made by others. So no man shall boast. Not just sharing ourselves. Not for a ministry name or missionary pastor such said kind of thing. We never wanted to be recognized in anything we did. We have stopped sharing a little here so we are not recognized as an Photo-op type of ministry. We live by faith and not by sight! We are doers of the Torah and not hearers only. We share our food with those who need and ask us for help.

Then we thought, how else we could share? So we saw another device. Smartphones are also expensive here so we keep older type of phones. They sell the SD Micro Phone Memory Cards. We can now also put these videos in these micro cards and share it with those who have older phones. That also would help us share the valuable Torah teachings that can be played in their phones.
So how we can be a Brothers Keeper? Keeping them from falling away. With YHWH's Torah and the Testimony of Yahshua haMashiach! They need healing and deliverance. There is something we can do together to set them free. Sharing Truth!

James/Ya'acov 5:19-20  Brothers, if anyone among you goes astray from the truth, and someone turns him back, let him know that he who turns a sinner from the straying of his way shall save a life from death and cover a great number of sins.

Acts 3:6-8  But Kĕpha said, “I do not have silver and gold, but what I do possess, this I give you: In the Name of יהושע Messiah of Natsareth, rise up and walk.” And taking him by the right hand he lifted him up, and immediately his feet and ankle bones were made firm. And leaping up, he stood and walked, and went in with them into the Set-apart Place, walking and leaping and praising Elohim.

The Written Torah can not save you, but it will Heal you! YHWH RAFFA!
Exodus 15:26 And He said, “If you diligently obey the voice of יהוה your Elohim and do what is right in His eyes, and shall listen to His commands and shall guard all His laws, I shall bring on you none of the diseases I brought on the Mitsrites, for I am יהוה who heals you.”

Now in the South Costa Rica area, we are able to share more of this Truth that can set the captives free! HalleluYAH! Thank you who support us to give to these who have no one teaching them Truth. May YHWH bless you and keep you.

Am I a Brothers Keeper by Sharing the Good News? Would you help?

Shabbat Shalom! HalleluYAH!

Sharing Homesteading! L'chaim! Pura Vida!

Sharing Homesteading

This time of the year our egg basket is overflowing and we found this info helpful to preserve eggs. 
Deu 28:1-2  “And it shall be, if you diligently obey the voice of יהוה your Elohim, to guard to do all His commands which I command you today, that יהוה your Elohim shall set you high above all nations of the earth. “And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, if you obey the voice of יהוה your Elohim:
      Deu 28:5  “Blessed is your basket and your kneading bowl.
Also we inherited Iron Cast Pots and Pans from the owners of the farm. We are learning much about how to care for them and make them non stick. We will share two links below. 

 http://knowledgeweighsnothing.com/the-4-golden-rules-of-cast-iron-cooking/ 


http://www.seriouseats.com/2014/11/the-truth-about-cast-iron.html


 We have been blessed by being able to live the Homestead life. Abba YHWH has provided from the bread and fruit from the earth as we continue to learn and see what is the best method of growth and the climate of South Costa Rica. We had ups and downs as we saw many seeds go from sprout to compost while others are doing great or better than expected during the rainy season. Egg production slows down as the chickens stay under the houses most of the day and can not graze. We learned not to give them much of the concentrated feeds sold at the Agricultural feed supplies. We started feeding plain corn and supplement with egg shells and scraps. We have less compost but healthier chickens.

We would like you to be here and experience the blessing of L'chaim which the locals call "Pura Vida". Nuestra casa es su casa!. If you would like to come and spend some days here with us please just send us a comment and we can plan.


Shalom from the Montanez mispacha in South Costa Rica.
