Outreach Goal Set High!
   

Outreach goal has been set high to meet current and future needs. We are grateful for the first donations that have come in from the YAIY Board of Directors who first knew of this “Outreach Fund.” $556.95 of which $300 was just sent to the Philippines to help with postage and other needs to establish YAIY.

    Due to the increased postage of overseas mailing costs here in the United States, it is actually more affordable to send bulk packages of newsletters and magazines. Once arriving they are then labeled with addresses and taken to have postage added to each one. The savings is substantial as each overseas magazine sent separately would be nearly  $4.00 each.

    We also believe that the Philippines would be an ideal location to go into the rest of Asia and Europe with Yahweh’s Word and to teach about the coming Kingdom of Yahweh.

    To do this effectively means that we will need to have a printing press for literature in the Philippines. Land and buildings are already established, but maintenance and upkeep are always a need.

    There are numerous elders and deacons in the Philippines doing what they can to do further outreach work, but without more funding they’re limited in what can be done.

 

Funds For Africa

If we are to reach into other areas of the world, including areas like Africa effectively, which could also be a catalyst into Europe,  we will need to meet traveling expenses to go to areas where there has been substantial interest in the truth of Yahweh’s Word. Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana, etc. are all hotspots of interest, but to date we have not been able to travel there. That may change as the need grows to have someone go.

    Elder Lionel Gets has an advantage living in South Africa. Not only has he lived there for years and knows the terrain well, he is also able to freely interact with the various tribal groups since his ethnicity is Caucasian, and he’d be considered less threatening as most of the tribal groups do not get along with each other.

    Elder Lionel and his wife, Sister Sandra, will be helping us in mailings to Africa. As we send bulk packages of magazines, etc., they will then distribute them individually to those on the mailing list.

    We are looking forward to visiting those other areas in Africa in which more brethren can be added to the body of Messiah and other leaders anointed and appointed for the growth and proclamation of the Word. Consider the need that is before us.

 

Stepping Stones to South America

Dominica and Trinidad are literally stepping stones into the areas of South America. There has been some interest from Brazil and we  should be readying ourselves to be able to help as the interest increases.

    Over the last few years there has been a greater connection between the leaders and brethren in Dominica and Trinidad. It seems that Yahweh has been moving them for a bigger role to play in the future.

   Elder Joseph Francis is in the process of acquiring a VISA to be able to travel. Please keep him in your prayers for this need.

   With those in Dominica and Trinidad possibly able to play a bigger role in helping to reach out into these other areas, such as South America, it is paramount that financial and logistical support is provided to do so, but all in Yahweh’s timing and one step at a time.

 

Other Areas in the World

Other areas in the world, such as India, Australia, etc., will need more time and effort invested in them for the work to prosper in those areas. We are currently doing everything we can to reach out and be effective, but prayers and funding for these projects are needed.

   The workers are few, the needs are great, but planting and watering must continue. Yahweh will cause the growth in due season. Will you help in the planting of seeds and the watering of them while it’s still daytime? It seems that time is drawing ever closer to a finality of end time events. Let’s be involved with reaching out and fulfilling the proclamation of the coming Kingdom and of Yahweh’s Messiah, our Savior and soon coming King. The work which will have everlasting rewards:

  “‘He has dispersed abroad, He has given to the poor; His righteousness endures forever.’ Now may He who supplies seed to the sower, and bread for food, supply and multiply the seed you have sown and increase the fruits of your righteousness, while you are enriched in everything for all liberality, which causes thanksgiving through us to Elohim. For the administration of this service not only supplies the needs of the saints, but also is abounding through many thanksgivings to Elohim,while, through the proof of this ministry, they glorify Yahweh for the obedience of your confession to the evangel of Messiah, and for your liberal sharing with them and all men, and by their prayer for you, who long for you because of the exceeding grace of Elohim in you. Thanks be to Elohim for His indescribable gift! ...he who stands firm to the end will be saved. And this evangel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.” 2 Cor 9:9-15; Matt 24:13-14 NKJV.

...May we stand strong and united as we move forward into His fields!

                                                                                                                                           

                                                                                                               —Elder David Brett

 

 
   

...thou shalt remember

Yahweh thy Elohim:

for it is He that giveth thee power to get wealth…

Outreach Goal

 
 
 
 
         
Approaching Cable Stations        

Getting the made-for-cable program called “Revealing The Truth” into your local area is as easy as 1, 2, 3:

 

1.  Check your local listing, phonebook, or call a local station to find out if there is a “Public Access Station” for your viewing area. Note: they may tell you of a station outside of your viewing area that you could take media to once a month. Please consider doing this as it can help fulfill the commission we are given to proclaim the coming Kingdom and other Good News of Yahweh’s Word.

2.  Contact us with the station information and then let us send you a DVD of the program along with a letter (explaining all the media formats available, etc.)  that you can hand to the station. If you prefer we can contact the station direct, but normally they will want a sponsor. You can fill this vital role and be part of the work that Yahweh is accomplishing in these end times.

3.  Once we have confirmation that the station will accept our programming, we will provide two months (8- programs) worth of the weekly telecast, each episode being a different one. This satisfies the need for the station to have quality programming on a rotating schedule and helps guarantee that if there are any delays due to technical problems, detrimental weather, etc., that their scheduling will not be affected in a negative way.

     

The above is basically information for sharing Yahweh’s neglected truths into the homes here in the United States, but there are also ways the program can be shown overseas as well. We believe the new format of DVDs will be acceptable to stations overseas whereas VHS was not, for the most part. Do you live outside of the United States? Contact us to see if you can be of help in “Revealing The Truth” in your country.

   Satellite stations are also on the list to be contacted. Angel Network and other “Christian” based networks will be approached to show “Revealing The Truth.” There is some cost involved, but it is nowhere near the secular station costs to air such programming.

   To reach literally multiple millions at a time, satellite may very well be worth the time and effort. We’ll do what we can, and trust that if Yahweh is willing, the doors that He wants us to walk through to proclaim His Truth will be opened.

 

         
Mini-Studies Getting Done        

As the YAIY Mini-Studies get printed we will start sending out more than one at a time to the hard-copy recipients. If you are online getting this, feel free to contact us to order more of those Mini-Studies that have been completed. Why would you want more? To share with others, of course!

   We are an active body of believers who sincerely want to share the inspired and uncorrupted (unleavened) Word to others. Some may think it is futile to try to share the truth with people today, and at times it may certainly seem that way, but we must understand that what we plant now, may not be seen for awhile. So, let’s be encouraged as we all have abilities to share, even if it is to just hand a piece of literature to a friend. “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen,” Heb 11:1.

   We are warned not to be ashamed of Yahshua or His teachings which were His Father’s teachings:  “For whoever is ashamed of Me and My words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man will also be ashamed of him when He comes in the glory of His Father with the holy angels,” Mark 8:38 NASU.

   Some lay literature down at the local mall or shopping center. Some leave them at the Laundromat...there may even be a spot to leave some at the local library. Wherever you leave some literature, whether it be at the doctor’s office or truck-stop, know that you’re being an active part of what Yahweh is doing in these last days to proclaim His way of life to others through His Son Yahshua the Messiah. 

   “I know your deeds. Behold, I have put before you an open door which no one can shut, because you have a little power, and have kept My word, and have not denied My name,” Rev 3:8.

Atonement: Deep Reflection Within
         

In September we’re expecting to see the new moon (visible crescent), and therefore the 7th month in Yahweh’s calendar, on 12th day of the secular calendar. The first day (the 13th) is Trumpets, the 22th would be Day of Atonement, and the 27th starts the first day of the Feast of Tabernacles.

    Interestingly enough, if the new moon shows when we expect it, the Day of Atonement would then be on a weekly Sabbath. Does this mean we are not to fast that day since the Sabbath is to be a delight? Normally this would be the case, as “afflicting the soul (being)” by going without water and food is difficult and should not be done on a Sabbath, weekly or otherwise.

   The Day of Atonement is different, however, in that it is the only commanded day in Scripture to actually fast. So be it, if it falls on a weekly Sabbath. We are told it is “most holy to Yahweh,” Ex 30:10. A day for reflection and meditation on Him and His ways. A day to do no work, like the other Sabbaths of Yahweh. A day for humbling oneself before the throne of the Almighty in worship to Him through Yahshua. This is to be done with other brethren, if at all possible, Lev 23:27.

   It is referred to in the New Testament as “The Fast” (Acts 27:9), and is a time when Yahshua the Messiah can be perfected in us. In 2 Cor 12:9-10, the Apostle Paul relates what Yahshua told him in his affliction:

    And He said unto me, “My grace is sufficient for thee: for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Messiah may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Messiah’s sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.

   This is a reason to also fast at other times in the year, but Yahweh tells us this one time is special to Him and that it is holy. We are therefore to keep it holy, by doing what Yahweh tells us to do on this day. Yahweh’s people that disregard Atonement, we are told, will be cut off, Lev 23:29-30. (See also Heb 6:4-8; 10:26, 35; 2 Pet 2:20-22.)

 

       
Prayer List          

Elder Eugene Rodgers, Elder Dick Vaow, Hap Tew, Charlie Pelton, Alice Findling, Cindy Gustke and Family, Nancy White, Michelle Love & Family, Jewell Holt, Dolores Parker, Derek Kittle, Edward Breault & Family, Lillian Simon, David Choate & Family, Donnie Miller & Family, Samuel Snyder & Family, Ana Ybanez Harrom, the brethren in Dominica, Chris Avalos & Family, and for all of Israel.

 

“Yet even now,” declares Yahweh, “Return to Me with all your heart, And with fasting, weeping and mourning; And rend your heart and not your garments.” Now return to Yahweh your Elohim, For He is gracious and compassionate, Slow to anger, abounding in lovingkindness And relenting of evil, Joel 2:12-13 NASU.
