Indigenous Friends of Israel Decry Islamic Preachers’ Calls for Jihad by Norman & Barbara Miller

8 NOVEMBER 2023

Indigenous Friends of Israel founders Norman and Barbara Miller refute the claims of Brother Ismail recently at the Al Madina Dawah Centre, southwest Sydney that Hamas is not a terrorist organisation. He also called for Jihad.

Indigenous Friends of Israel also raises concerns that not only has the Al Madina Dawah Centre not distanced themselves from this, but it has released a similar tirade from another preacher. No other Islamic organisation has taken issue with this call to kill Jews either.

Hamas is recognised as a terrorist organisation in Australia and other nations and the slaughter, torture, and mutilation of Israelis, many in their beds, the burning alive of families, raping women, beheading babies, killing children and elderly including Holocaust survivors and kidnapping is a terrorist act. It has unleashed a bloodlust around the world for Jewish blood, which is what was intended. This cannot be justified under any circumstancesSEE MORE

ISRAEL HUMANITARIAN APPEAL
By Centre for International Reconciliation and Peace

Help Israel recover from Oct 7 bloodbath and its aftermath by donating to ministries run by Ps Avi and Chaya Mizrachi of Dugit Ministries Tel Aviv (left) and Ps Howard and Randi Bass of Yeshua’s Inheritance Congregation Beer Sheva.

There are thousands of Jewish people displaced by the terror that occurred on Oct 7 with their homes and communities destroyed. Some of those affected were Holocaust survivors. Many just left with the clothes on their backs and are in need of help. Lives have been turned upside down. It is not safe yet to return and rebuild and probably won’t be for a long time. 

For any donation from Australians over $70 AUD, you can receive a copy of Ps Munganbana Norman Miller’s painting of From Mourning into Dancing based on Psalm 30 and Ps Barbara Miller’s book William Cooper, Gentle Warrior: Standing Up for Australian Aborigines and Persecuted Jews. The flier above done for us by our friend Tim Jack, shows you how to donate

Unfortunately, Rabbi Ari Rubin from Chabad NQ had to draw attention to the bullying of Jewish schoolchildren in Cairns. Children at private and public schools called Jewish children “dirty Jews” and one 11-year-old Jewish girl was circled by schoolchildren shouting “Free Palestine” to her. This is inexcusable antisemitism, racism, and intimidation. Indigenous Friends of Israel has responded by trying to get antibullying education from Courage to Care into these schools. We were able to get Courage to Care into many schools in the Far North run by Catholic Education a number of years ago. 

Above is an interview we did with “The Cairns Post.”

Book trailer – Voice Treaty Truth: Has the Christian Voice Been Heard?

What is happening in Australian race relations is a mirror of what is happening in the Western world. Australia is currently divided 60/40 over a recent referendum to enshrine an Indigenous representative body in the constitution which would be a Voice to parliament and the executive government.

There was pushback about creating a race-based body in the constitution and the inequality of having two classes of citizens. This is likely to continue with division over the need for a treaty and debating about the truth of Australia’s history. This book, Voice Treaty Truth, examines both sides of the argument in a passionate and balanced way and looks at the issues from political, historical, and spiritual viewpoints.

ANNIVERSARY OF KRISTALLNACHT ZOOM MEETING
HOSTED BY INDIGENOUS FRIENDS OF ISRAEL 9.11.23

Hear Ps Avi Mizrachi of Dugit Ministries Tel Aviv and Ps Howard Bass of Yeshua’s Inheritance Beer Sheva share at 6.30pm Brisbane time, 7.30pm Sydney, 7pm SA & NT, 4.30pm WA, and 10.30am Israel time.

The photo is of Germans passing a Jewish shop with windows broken during Kristallnacht 9-10 Nov 1938. It was the start of the Holocaust. It is taken from my book Shattered Lives Broken Dreams.

It is with sadness that we tell you that 1930’s Nazi Germany is here again, this time with Islamo-fascism, hatred of Jews and rampant antisemitism, On October 7, the hope of Never Again was shattered. With 1400 Jews tortured and slaughtered, many in their beds or safe rooms, it was the highest number of Jews murdered in one day since the Holocaust.

The October 7 barbaric onslaught on civilians in Israel has sparked a blood lust around the world to annihilate the Jewish state and Jews wherever they can be found in the world. We see it on the streets of western nations like Australia, the US, the UK and Europe

We are calling this zoom meeting on the anniversary of  Kristallancht or the Night ot the Broken Glass in Germany where Jewish homes and businesses had their windows broken, synagogues were burned , over 90 Jews were killed and thousands were forced to wear stars of David and marched to a concentration camp. 

This time, Jewish families were burnt alive in Israel, Jewish businesses are being vandalised in the United States, Jewish diplomats are wearing stars of David at the UN and Jewish children in Australia can’t wear uniforms to school for fear of being attacked. Actual attacks on Jews are occurring around the world.  Jewish university students in Australia are having to sit their exams segregated in safe places. 

In my book If I Survive about Lena Goldstein, she talks about how she experienced the attacks on Jews by other students at university in Poland and she and other Jews were not able to complete their studies.

Incredibly, Israel is being blamed for what has happened. It is a classic blame the victim narrative. Worse it is a narrative of cultural Marxism where the Marxists talk about the “useful idiots” in academia, the media and government (even churches) who swallow their ideology that there is only one way of looking at the world – oppressors and the oppressed. Despite being the most multicultural nation in the world, Israel is painted as the white oppressor of coloured Palestinians. It is painted as occupiers of Gaza even though it pulled out in 2005. 

We grieve about all innocent victims of this Israel-Hamas war to root out the terrorists – those slaughtered mercilessly in Israel and those civilians killed by Israeli retaliation in Gaza including those used as human shields by Hamas. We know Israel tries hard to avoid civilian casualties but Hamas wins the media war at the toll. 

We pray for innocents to be spared and for Christian Arabs in Israel and Arab lands to be safe as well. We pray for God’s angels to be stationed on the borders of Israel to protect her against Iran and its proxies – Hezbollah in Lebanon, proxies in Syria and Iraq in the north, the Palestinian Authority in Judea and Samaria (West Bank) Hamas and Islamic Jihad in Gaza and the Houthis from Yemen firing on Eilat in the south.

We pray Lord that You would comfort your people in Israel and worldwide from  the grief of loss of loved ones and fear from threats to their very existence and heal the wounded. I woke up the other morning with the words “existential threat.” Israel and the Jews worldwide are fighting for their very existence, their survival as a people and as the only Jewish nation in the world, the only democracy in the Middle East. And we stand with Israel. 
Isaiah 40:1-2
“Comfort, comfort My people,” says your God.
“With gentle words, tender and kind …

Please join us Thursday night and stand with Israel as well. Zechariah 2:8 says:

“For thus says the Lord of hosts, “After glory He has sent me against the nations which plunder you, for he who touches you, touches the apple of His eye’.”

RECONCILIATION ROUNDTABLE BY ZOOM 2.11.23

We had an inspiring time when Ps Norman Miller called a Reconciliation Roundtable by zoom on Thursday 19 October followed up by one on 2 Nov. It was called to discuss and pray for strategies to move forward in healing and reconciliation after the Voice Referendum divided our nation and brought grieving and anger to many of the Yes Campaigners. Many useful strategies came up and the recording is below. We will inform you of the next one soon.

We all have the message and ministry of reconciliation 2 Cor 5:17-21. Gal 3:28 tells us we are all one in Christ no matter what our race, gender, income or social status.

AUSTRALIA VOTES NO TO RACISM & INEQUALITY OF VOICE

By Barbara Miller 15.10.23

About 60% of Australians voted no in the Voice referendum held on 14.10.23 with no state having a majority of yes voters. The ACT, Teal electorates, and the richer electorates had a majority of yes voters whereas electorates that had a high percentage of First Nations people had a majority of no voters. So, it was clearly not an issue that had the support of a majority of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.

This is a big blow to the efforts of Prime Minister Albanese who spent hundreds of millions of dollars on this referendum that could have been spent on improving health, education, and housing etc. on the ground for First Nations people and easing the cost of living pressure for many Australians. Albanese was so intent on getting this Voice up as his legacy that he was blind to other issues, including joining world leaders in a quick response to the Hamas massacre of Israelis.

Millions were also spent on the yes campaign by big corporations that would have been better spent Closing the Gap between First Nations and other Australians. We have a combination of Big Government, Big Name First Nations leaders, Big Business, Big Banks, Big Sports, and Big Faith and Multicultural groups who all supported the yes vote by saying they were taking the moral high ground on this issue.
However, the Australian people pushed back against the elites and voted for a united nation not divided by race and they voted for equal citizenship of Australians. They stood up to the moral intimidation and voted no.

The sad thing is that the Prime Minister and the First Nations leaders who ran the yes campaign have set back the cause of reconciliation in this nation and now we need some healing as a nation.
First Nations leaders and voters who supported the yes vote are saying that they have been rejected by the Australian people and are in a time of mourning for the result of the vote, their dreams for their reshaping of Australia dashed. They say they have a media blackout for one week with flags at half-mast to grieve and reassess. We certainly feel for them and want to comfort them at this time.

However, Australians have great goodwill towards First Nations people. They would have voted for recognition of First Australians people in the constitution if it had not been conflated with the Voice as a way to do it. What the people of Australia did is to reject the particular model that was put forward.
While there are a few racists in Australia, both in the non-Indigenous and the Indigenous communities, Australia is not a racist nation and has made many important steps to advance the cause of First Nations people.

As the no campaign First Nations leaders have said, the referendum was based on a lie that there was not a First Nations voice advising government because there are many national First Nations organisations advising government including the Coalition of Peaks which represents them all. It has about 80 member organisations. Also, there is no guarantee that the Voice would have made a difference to close the gap.
We do believe a reassessment needs to be made of the programs run for and by First Nations people and the effectiveness of these.

Ps Norman Miller is calling for a reconciliation roundtable gathering to be held by zoom on Thursday 19 October at 6.30pm Brisbane time and 7.30pm Sydney time which he and I will be hosting. He is doing this because over 25 years ago, he had a prophetic word that he and I were called to be watchmen over the nation of Australia in the area of reconciliation. Norman is calling Christians, First Nations and others to pray for reconciliation and to pray for strategies for our nation to move forward and heal after the failed referendum.

Israel and Gaza at War: Gaza is part of the Promised Land by Ps Barbara Miller

Watch this up-to-date message on the Biblical history of Israel and Gaza and some prophetic insights.

WELCOME THE KING OF GLORY

By Ps Barbara Miller

This is a photo of the Welcome the King of Glory event in Israel taken 13.10.17. It was the first one and Norman and I attended it taking a team. A huge number attended, mostly from Pacific nations as the All Pacific Arise (formerly APPA) came at the invitation of Messianic Jewish leaders from Israel. This year 300 attended and it was held at the King of Kings congregation in Jerusalem. While there were calls to cancel it, half of the delegates had already arrived, being there when the Hamas massacre of Israelis occurred. Because of security concerns, the government only allowed 50 people at a time in a room so 6 rooms were used with TV screens. 

The 3-day conference is now ended but half of the delegates have not been able to go home because the airport was closed. There are likely to be other Christians still in Israel from the ICEJ and ANCJ conferences so we pray for the safety of Christians in Israel as well as the Israeli people. 

The Welcome the King of Glory conference was reportedly successful. We have some of our Indigenous Friends of Israel state coordinators at this conference. The nations repented of their idolatry and covenanted their nation to the Lord and Messianic Jewish leaders repented for Israel’s rejection of Messiah. No doubt heaven took note. Messianic leaders would have found comfort from the nations standing and praying with them in their hour of need.

We ask for prayers for Christian Arabs as well. Forty Arabs were killed among the Israelis killed by Hamas as they tend to be indiscriminate in their killing. There are good relationships between Messianic Jews and Christian Arabs in Israel built up over a long time. However, there are tensions in Israel as Arabs don’t want to be mistaken for Hamas. 

We continue to pray as well that this does not develop into a global conflict before the appointed time of the Lord.

WE STAND WITH ISRAEL & PRAY FOR ISRAEL

Photo – Norman Miller blowing the shofar on all the border of Israel and Syria. We have prayed on all the borders of Israel a number of times, including at Sderot. Unfortunately, there was a serious border breach last weekend on Shabbat and the last day of Sukkot with Hamas attacking Israel by land, sea, and air. This has left 1200 Israelis brutally slaughtered, including elderly and Holocaust survivors, 2500 wounded, about 150 taken hostage to Gaza, children and women beheaded and mutilated, women raped, and unimaginable torture. 

This is the worst loss of life for Jewish people in one day since the Holocaust!!!

Our hearts are breaking as we stand with the people of Israel and Jews worldwide, especially with the pro-Hamas demonstration at the Sydney Opera House with a shameful reaction by the NSW police and government in facilitating it and telling Jews to stay home and not draw comfort from seeing the sails of the Sydney Opera House lit up with the colours of the Jewish flag.

Also shame on Foreign Minister Penny Wong telling Israel to show restraint in responding to this barbarism. Also, shame on Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese taking 4 days to contact the Australian Jewish community to express his condolences. He also missed out on joining in an international statement of condemnation of Hamas and expressing support for Israel.

We have contacted our considerable number of Jewish friends in Israel and Australia to express our support and offer comfort. Isaiah 40 says, “Comfort, comfort My people,” says your God. With gentle words, tender and kind … ” We are concerned that Jewish people in Australia are afraid and not safe. This is also a concern worldwide.

There have been missiles also from Lebanon and Syria. We know that Iran is behind Hamas and Hezbollah. Psalm 83 comes to mind and we need to pray that we don’t have a global conflict before God’s timing. Psalm 83:

O God, do not remain silent;
    do not turn a deaf ear,
    do not stand aloof, O God.
See how your enemies growl,
    how your foes rear their heads.
With cunning they conspire against your people;
    they plot against those you cherish.
“Come,” they say, “let us destroy them as a nation,
    so that Israel’s name is remembered no more.”
With one mind they plot together;
    they form an alliance against you—
the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites,
    of Moab and the Hagrites,
Byblos, Ammon and Amalek,
    Philistia, with the people of Tyre.
Even Assyria has joined them
    to reinforce Lot’s descendants.

Many Christians around the world are praying in support of Israel and that it does not become World War 3 before the Lord’s timing. Rick Riding is one of those who have made such a call. The Canberra Declaration has called its intercessors to join in a worldwide 21-day prayer call.

INDIGENOUS FRIENDS OF ISRAEL & TABERNACLE OF DAVID CAIRNS CONFERENCE

We were very blessed to have Ps Avi and Chaya Mizrachi and their family – daughter Devora, 2 grandchildren and nephew Eden and niece Linoy for our Indigenous Friends of Israel and Tabernacle of David Cairns conference 18-20 August. They came from ministering in the Solomon Islands. It was a very anointed conference and we were all so blessed. This was just 2 weeks after Ps Norman and Barbara had hosted a Church and Cultural Challenges conference in Canberra. 

We were also blessed to have David and Carol Jack come from Melbourne and for David to video both conferences. He is still working on these but in the meantime, we have a few not-so-professional videos of the Cairns conference for you to look at on YouTube. We started with a Shabbat meal and ended with an amazing prophetic act of the tribes aligning themselves with the tribe of Judah and Israel. These are not available as yet.

This photo was sent to Barbara by an Egyptian intercessor concerned at the Australian government’s decision to use Hamas terminology that the West Bank (which includes East Jerusalem) and Gaza are “occupied territories” rather than Australia’s previous position that they were “disputed territories.” Hamas, a terrorist organisation, is hailing this decision. It is also inaccurate in that Israel pulled out of Gaza many years ago. This decision was made a few days prior to the National ALP conference in exchange for the Socialist Left’s support of the AUKUS defence agreement. 

We believe the timing of our conference was strategic in that it was the same timing as the National ALP Conference in Brisbane. Barbara spoke about this in her message (available in the next newsletter) and made a decree of reversal of their policy. See our press release of 10 August here –https://indigenousfriendsofisrael.org/indigenous-friends-of-israel-australia-press-release-10-8-23/

The Southern Cross Alliance for Israel (SCAFI) also put a press release out on 15 August signed off by John Lockwood and 30 mostly Christian organisations with some Jewish. David Jack did the leg work on it to get agreement on the wording. Our Centre for International Reconciliation and Peace and Indigenous Friends of Israel are 2 of the signatories.

The ALP has long had a position to recognize Palestine as a state though it doesn’t meet the requirements internationally recognized for a state. There was a push at this conference to recognize Palestine as a state immediately. However, after some debate, it was decided that the status quo would remain. 

Indigenous Friends of Israel had a meeting after the conference of state and city coordinators so we are stretching the tent pegs as in Isaiah 54 so if you are interested, please let us know. Non-Indigenous people can be associate members as we believe in reconciliation. Email us here: https://indigenousfriendsofisrael.org/contact-us/

Norman presented him with his award-winning art book. RIGHT – Carol and David Jack are pictured here with the Ambassador and Norman and Barbara. David presented the Ambassador with a book about his father’s art. Ps Lai from Taiwan also presented the Ambassador with his art. The Ambassador spoke about the importance of communicating the many positive messages about Israel, not just focusing on issues or conflict. He is reaching out to all Australians with this message. He spoke for about 20 mins and had a question and answer session at the end.

DON’T MISS OUT ON SPEAKERS FROM ISRAEL IN CAIRNS 18-20 AUGUST! HELP $$ INDIGENOUS PEOPLE TO COME here

REVIVAL COMING

A team of 9 with 3 pastors came from Taiwan to our Church & Cultural Challenges conference. They are Indigenous and Ps Lai spoke of the revival they had 50 years ago and he showed a video of it. His father was a key person in that revival. Ps Joy, an Indigenous pastor from Malaysia said it is 50 years also since their revival. Both nations are expecting and praying for revival to break out again. Ps Norman shared that he and his brother Tom and sister Colleen who came as part of the worship team from Cairns, were sons and daughters of a revivalist, Shirley Miller who was in the Pinnacle Pocket revival when she was a child. 

As Ps Peter Walker was unable to make it, his session became an international session with the Taiwan team, Ps Joy from Malaysia and Ps Dora Kua from PNG sharing. 

Ps Chen came to the 12.12.12 conference Norman and Barbara hosted in Sydney in 2012 and has since been in regular contact. He sees Ps Norman as a spiritual father and asked him to release a blessing which he did on the last day. Tears flowed and gifts were given and Barbara declared the blessings of Deut 28:1-14 over them.

 

Church & Cultural Challenges Conference Vision: 4 Visions and Angelic Intervention by Ps B Miller. 

SUMMARY

This was the first message of the conference on 27.7.23. The video missed the first few minutes of my message but I spoke of 4 visions I had in March which led me to organise this conference. The first one was of demonic entities coming out of the cave of Pan at Caesarea Philippi in Israel.

Strategic Time – Tish’a B’Av or 9 Av

Tish’a B’Av for the Hebrew Year 5783 began at sundown on Wednesday, 26 July 2023 and ended at nightfall on Thursday, 27 July 2023. This was the first day of our Canberra conference. It has been a disastrous day through history of the Jewish people, the day when Solomon’s temple was destroyed by the Babylonians and the second temple by the Romans, Jews were expelled from England and Spain, WW1 started and Hitler’s Final Solution was declared. I write about it in my book on Holocaust or Shoah survivor Lena Goldstein as that is when a large number of Jews were sent from Warsaw Ghetto to Treblinka death camp.

What were the spiritual issues that brought about these consequences? One was the bad report of the spies after they spied out the Promised Land for 40 days. They said we are like grasshoppers in their eyes and can’t take the land. This was after journeying all that way from Egypt and seeing all God’s miracles. The people cried grumbled & rebelled. Nu 14:1-3.

According to Rabbinic tradition, the sin of the spies produced the annual fast day of 9 Av. When the Israelites accepted the false report, they wept over the false belief that God was setting them up for defeat. The night that the people cried was the 9 Av, which became a day of weeping and tragedy for all time. We need to believe God’s promises and not see ourselves in the eyes of God’s enemies as grasshoppers but in God’s eyes.

We are in a 9 Av situation now.

We may look at giants in the land like identity politics, worship of the environment instead of God, a decline in values etc. and hear bad reports and get discouraged and frustrated and even lose hope and cry. We may be disappointed. But God is well able in His timing and His way to defeat His enemies and we are well able in His power to withstand the enemy and do all God has called us to do.

Give me my mountain!

We need to be like the 2 spies with the good report – Joshua and Caleb and say like Caleb, even at 85 years old, “Give me my mountain.” We were urged to declare this.

Prayer for the 7 Mountains

Lord, we pray you will give us the 7 mountains of cultural influence – family, religion, education, media, entertainment, business, and government. We pray to God to release angels to kindergartens, schools, universities, workplaces – government and corporate, parliaments and local councils, charities, sporting codes, media, entertainment, the arts, families, and churches to fight ungodly influences.

Decree

2 Sam 5:24:17-24. Baal Perazim means Lord of the Breakthrough.” Or YHWH Perazim so we declare and decree a breakthrough in bringing a cultural shift in our nations back to Judeo-Christian values in the name of the Lord of the breakthrough, the Lord of Heavens armies.

v24 As soon as you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the poplar (mulberry) trees, move quickly, because that will mean the Lord has gone out in front of you to strike the Philistine army.” The Lord told David to move after he heard the angelic army moving.

Warfare in the Heavenlies Over Australia

I sense we are experiencing warfare in the heavenlies over Australia as in the time of Daniel. Dan 10 tells us that Daniel prayed and fasted when he realized that the prophecy of Jeremiah showed it was time for the captives to return from Babylon to Israel. An angel finally appeared to him 21 days later, and explains the delay: the “prince of Persia” had been opposing him the whole time, and it wasn’t until Michael relieved the angel that he could continue his trip to Daniel. The angel gave Daniel long an outline of future events but had to return to fighting the prince of Persia and the prince of Greece. Only Michael supports this angel against these forces.

So there is likely to be an angel over Australia and a demonic spirit prince over Australia. We need to pray and ask God to release His angel over Australia on behalf of His plans and purposes and align ourselves with God’s purposes and activities.

 

Judah Must Go First & Waking Up From the Spirit of Woke by Ps Norman Miller 

In 1999, Barbara & I went to Ephesus to join Peter Wagner & Christians from many nations to pray against the Queen of Heaven. The strategy was to worship for 4 hours because in Biblical times, they worshipped Diana for 2hrs. That’s one reason why I wanted to start with 4 hrs worship.

After the death of Joshua, the Israelites asked the Lord, “Who of us is to go up first to fight against the Canaanites?” The Lord answered, “Judah shall go up; I have given the land into their hands.” Judges 1:1-2.

On the first night of the conference, we had no speaker just 4 hours of non-stop worship with Lifestream church taking the first hour, Tabernacle of David Cairns taking the 2nd and 4th hour and the third hour shared by international teams from Taiwan and Malaysia. We praise the Lord for an awesome night of breakthrough.

In Genesis 9: 14-15, God told Noah, “Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will remember my covenant between me and you and all living creatures of every kind. Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life.”

Even around the throne of God, there is pictured a majestic rainbow—used to communicate the glory of God (Rev. 4:3). We thank the Lord for His blessing over the conference.

So many people to thank – all those who attended, all those who prayed, those who contributed finances. Most of all we thank the Lord because without Him it would be impossible. Thanks to speakers – Cindy McGarvie, Dr Graham Mclennan, Daniel Simon. David Jack, Amanda Stoker by zoom and the international team – all incredible speakers with so much information for us to digest.

We had a live zoom for those who couldn’t come face to face. We won’t be providing DVDs but we do hope to have messages available on youtube to those who were registered and perhaps to others by donation as well. David Jack did an incredible job videoing as he has done for many of our conferences. Peter Taylor did an amazing job not just looking after the sound and making the PowerPoint of messages and songs available but also setting up and managing the live zoom. We thank Derek Bedson for looking after the overheads. Thanks to Peter, Derek, David, Glen Sebasio and Norman for setting up.

We were incredibly blessed by the LIfestream church who supported the conference not just with the venue but the catering and cleaning etc. It is a church of elders rather than pastors and the servant leadership of Peter and Kim Taylor and Derek and Jacqueline Bedson was unparalleled. May they receive their reward.

Thanks also to our faithful prayer team who met with us regularly for months to pray for the conference and Jacqueline who led up the prayer team during the conference. Also thanks to all the worship teams including our wonderful team from Cairns of Thomas Miller, Colleen Burfitt and Norman Miller with Glen Sebasio of Canberra joining us. We are grateful to Judy Miller who looked after the registration and book tables.

We thank David and Carol Jack for their financial help for the conference and Rod and Lyn Baker who decided to bless the speakers with dinner. Also thanks to Joy Silverwood for cooking lunches. Please pray for Kim, Jacqueline and Joy who will head to the Philippines for a mission trip.

We were very blessed to have the team from Taiwan and pastors from Malaysia and PNG joining us.
