HAPPY NEW YEAR
On the Brink of a New Year . . . Greetings in the Matchless LOVE of YahShua and happy final day of the year! According to the book of Exodus, the Hebrew New Year begins tomorrow night, as the last of the light fades from the sky and darkness covers the heavens. It will be the first New Moon of the year. As my custom is each year at this time, I now send my ministry list a "year in review" of the Lee family. The New Year began for our family at the end of March 2006 in Napa Valley, California. We spent New Year's Day enjoying vairous wineries, touring the Napa Valley towns and enjoying a rain-dampened drive through the lush greenery of central coastal California. The Spring brought a loss of several long time clients and an addition of several huge clients. By early summer 2006, we had attained so many weekly housecleaning clients, that our business was bringing more money in than it ever had in its previous 2.5 years of existance. Pentecost of 06 proved to be a fun-filled party. A believer who discovered our website, Brother Rodney Timmons, also started attending our home congregation during this time and we greatly enjoyed his company and fellowship. By mid summer, Yah had directed me to fold the business and move to Missouri to serve under Chris Barr's nutrition and Torah-based ministry. In the late summer we folded the business, gave away most of our possessions, packed the rest and drove from California to Missouri. For the next three months, from late summer until late fall, we served Chris Barr with his home and business while Chris abused and mistreated my wife. Although we did all we could to bring Chris to brokeness and repentence, Chris' arrogance prevented him from humbling himself which forced us to leave Chris in his own sin and lust. By the first of winter 06, Yah had mightily blessed us by enabling us to move from Missouri back to Oregon where I began my own delivery driving business in Portland due to the timely aid of Brother Yochanon. Over the next three months, through the rainy and cold winter season of the Pacific Northwest, Yah established us in the Portland area, enabeling us to find a property in Washington to buy, make lots of money, preach and minsiter to thousands of people by preaching at PSU, Pioneer Square, in front of Messianic assemblies, passing out website cards at malls and businesses, witnessesing to people all through the metro area, etc. The global revival and reformation which will eventually culminate in the rise of the anti-messiah and later YahShua's Second Return began during the winter season of 06-07 with but a little strength in my family. HallaluYAH! Now, as we stand on the brink of yet another brand new year, we are within a few days of purchasing our dream home and property in Ariel, buying a brand new Macintosh computer for ministry, signing on with a Christian studio to lay down our album for distribution, awaiting a response from one of the largest literay agencies in New York City, and continuing to preach and minister as a full scale revival bursts forth at Portland State University. This has been an incredibly amazing past year, and I never could have predicted the twists and turns these past 12 months presented to our lives. This past year will go down in history as one of the most triumphant, glorious and maturing year I have ever had the honor of experiencing. HallaluYAH and may Yah be glorified by my family and myself in the coming year even as we pleased Him during this past year. Love in YahShua and by His Precious Torah and Happy New Year!!!!
