Hi our friend

We hope you had a wonderful week!!

In most organizations you see and know the faces of the people that are more in the public, but there are many people working behind the scenes that are a big part in making everything work. One of those in our YWAM Bay area family is our finance director. From making sure bills are paid, keeping the books and organizing everything so that donations go to the right spot just name a few, she did such an amazing job. She made sure all those things are working and done correctly over all those years. She also helped to put together and trained a team (which im also part of) which will now take on her roles when she is leaving. We are all so thankful for her and are sad to see her go but in the same way are happy for her and her family for the next things God has for her.

We also hope you got encouraged through todays Gospel Carrier Elisabeth Elliot. We want to encourage you to use the giftings God has given you to share the gospel.

Have a blessed week

Jesus most famous Sermon Part 16 a small and a wide gate

by

Today’s topic of Jesus most famous Sermon is about a small and a wide gate in Matthew 7.13-14. Be encouraged!

Hello our friend

We hope you had a wonderful week!

This week we got some sad news. Our friend Mikel who had such a love for Jesus, and who I knew almost as long as I was here in San Francisco, passed away. I will write some more thoughts about my friend at a later time. I want to ask you to keep his family in prayer in this time of grief.

One reminder from the video at the end: Lets examine our lives and see on which path we are at this point and make adjustments if needed. If you never made a decision for Jesus we want to encourage you to do that and if you do connect with a local church, start reading the bible and start to pray. Also a great thing to do is joining an Alpha course. It will give you a good foundation for your journey with Jesus!

God bless you

Hi our friend

We hope you had a wonderful week!!

Last Saturday different churches in the city hosted an annual worship event called the sound in the middle of Golden Gate park. The wonderful thing about this event is that people who just spent time in the park get to hear about Jesus. Its such a wonderful event. I got to help at the prayer area and pray for some people including a young man who randomly walked by the area and heard the music and checked it out.

We also hope you got encouraged through todays Gospel Carrier Helen Rosevaere. We want to encourage you even when things fall apart to lean into Jesus.

Have a blessed week

Jesus most famous Sermon Part 15 Do to others as you want them to do to you

by

Today’s topic of Jesus most famous Sermon is about doing to others as you want them to do to you in Matthew 7.12. Be inspired!

 

Hello our friend

We hope you had a wonderful week!

3 years ago one of our main grocery stores in the neighborhood closed. We still had one smaller grocery store left but that one has a limited selection. That really affected many people in our community since it was harder to get groceries. So after many delays last week a new grocery store opened up. Many people from the neighborhood came and were happy to have another grocery store which is affordable and carries more things. Of course a grocery store is a bigger need in the neighborhood that many of us could not just fulfill by starting one. But each one of us can look for small things that are needed and become the answer for those. Ask yourself, the neighbors and God the question: what does my neighborhood need and how can I be the answer for that?

One reminder from the video at the end: Remember to treat others the way you want to be treated, no matter if they do that or not.

God bless you

Hi our friend

We hope you had a wonderful week!!

Studying the bible together with others is such a blessing. As our small group we are reading right now through the book of acts. When we meet up we share a quick overview and then each one is sharing what stuck out to them individually. Everytime we do that something new sticks out to us. We want to encourage you to read and study the bible together with others and be blessed by it!

We also hope you got encouraged through todays Gospel Carrier Nate Saint. We want to encourage you to pray for those affected by tragedy and to pray that God will bring good out of this situation.

Have a blessed week
