Foundations

By
Over the last few weeks we have been revisiting the importance of building upon the correct foundations that YHVH outlined through Moses.  These important truths can often be interpreted through our previous experiences, doctrines and beliefs so it's vital that we search the scriptures periodically to refresh and vitalise our understanding.  How kind is our Adoni that He meets us where we're at, draws us into the light of His truth and sets us free to worship Him in spirit and in truth.

Last weekend we gathered at Hebron to worship YHVH and share our lives with each other.  How extraordinarily blessed are we to have such sweet company and a fantastic property to enjoy.  Of course that doesn't mean it's all sunshine and lollipops as we have those times when we need to put another before ourselves, to cover a multitude of sins with our love or on the rare occasion, confront an error.  However, these are often the times that the Spirit of YHVH accomplishes a strengthening and knitting together. 

We were so blessed to have Sandy Thomas visit us.  Sandy is one of those rare individuals that leaves you smiling and you just feel blessed having been in his company.  May YHVH continue to bless you in Mildura, Sandy!
Mates from way back.
The guys erected a fence to create a smaller paddock and protect our young trees.  This is arduous work but it gives us greater flexibility in moving the sheep around and also increases the value of the property. 

 The capers are doing very well this year and here we are ensuring each plant is properly watered and picking our first crop of capers.  We will go over each plant once a week to continue the picking cycle until the season is over and process the capers as go.  Within a couple of weeks we'll be able to sample them.  This will be the sixth year we have had these amazingly resilient plants and we are anticipating a decent crop off them next year.


Trevor and Neal were kept busy swinging gates.  Have I told you before that I love gates?  They make moving around the property so much easier and just make things look proper.  I do like a bit of visual order about the place!


During the holiday break the family has been up enjoying what Hebron has to offer and Brendan has been busy finishing fencing, gates and the orchard watering.  There are three trout in our lower dam and try as we might we were unable to catch them, so they're safe to live another day.

Hebron is such a delight and to see the slow but sure improvements is very satisfying. 

May YHVH's name be lifted high in our comings together.

Shalom.

Unleavened Bread - 2024

By
For this small part of Yeshua's body, Healing to the Nations in South Australia, the last few months, including the past week of Pesach, has been ....well, different and unusual.  It has truly been a period of time where Father YHVH has been rooting and grounding us in His love, word and truth.  We gathered together at Hebron to keep the Pesach memorial and there was a stripping back.  No traditions, no add-ons, just Yeshua's Pesach and Yeshua's words.  The following day, the first day of Unleavened Bread, the Father's kindness and uncompromising truth was manifested amongst us.  It was truly a blessed time together.  Traditionally the week of unleavened bread will have an emphasis of dealing with the carnal ego, which is very apt, or the leaven of the pharisees, which is also very apt.  However, Paul emphasised that sin that is tolerated is also leaven that must be exposed and dealt with to ensure that the body of Yeshua is kadosh, which was emphasise...

Sukkot in the Adelaide Hills

By
  With the autumn feasts upon us I was reflecting on Sukkot last year and how the year since has been full of YHVH's blessings and encouragements.   The HTTN community purchased the property nearly 19 years ago and we have worked hard to develop it.  There is still much to be done so that it can facilitate the purposes that YHVH wants for it but He has proven Himself faithful to His word over the years.  Not a minute too late, not a minute too soon.   We are looking forward to celebrating Yom Teruah next week and then Sukkot a few weeks later.  Hebron will once again be filled with the sound of shofars, singing and laughter.  Yes, there have been times of weeping and even then He proves Himself merciful and faithful. Hallelu Yah!

Shalom with Messiah

By
In a few weeks we will begin the next phase of the moed with Yom Teruah, Yom Kippur and Sukkot.  As with every year, we are eagerly anticipating this time with YHVH and the community in the Adelaide Hills.   One thing we say every year is that we long for the day when the wider Messianic community come together at Sukkot to celebrate with praise, feasting and fellowship.  It would seem that the Messianic community is relatively young and scattered in Australia and in the early days we would at times wonder if there was anyone else responding to the call to come out of the Christian church system and return to the ancient paths.  And of course there were and are. It's always so exciting when we meet another person or family who are on the same path and we can rejoice together.  We all have different stories, backgrounds and experiences but the common and binding truth is that YHVH is love and that love is expressed not only in His redemption but in the fullness o...
