Yeladim
The most amazing, kind, Yeshua loving, good looking, parent obeying, Torah reading, most excited to follow the WAY of Yeshua, happy children in the entire world.
Happy 250th Birthday America and Shalom yeladim! This week continue in Devarim or "words". Most of the words spoken in this final book of Moshe would have been unnecessary if only the people of G-D would have been obedient the first time. Our portion Shoftim shares its name with a whole book of the bible "Judges". Notice that the word is a plural and carries the "im" at the end of it. Shoftim is powerful call to remember that justice is what is right, wholly right based on truth, not just what is right for us. Have you ever been in an argument with a friend or sibling where you both believed that you were right? So, you went to a grown-up and asked them to help settle the argument for you. While you were explaining your side of the situation, in your heart you were hoping that the adult would choose your side.
Well, did you know that in this week’s Parsha, we learn that when we have a disagreement like the one above, where both parties believe they are right, when we go before the adult (judge) we should not be hoping to get our way. We should be hoping that justice (what is right, not who is right) comes about. Deuteronomy 16:18-20: 18 “Judges and officers you are to appoint within all your gates that Adonai your God is giving you, according to your tribes; and they are to judge the people with righteous judgment. 19You are not to twist justice—you must not show partiality or take a bribe, for a bribe blinds the eyes of the wise and distorts the words of the righteous. 20Justice, justice you must pursue, so that you may live and possess the land that Adonai your God is giving you.” As we seek to walk with -D and follow HIS ways remember that through it all, and often in spite of our choices, G-D is always faithful and true, traveling with us and seeing us through. Every day HE is encouraging us to obedience so that HE can rain down the many blessings that HE has stored up specifically for us. If you would like to understand more about the justice that G-D requires of us be sure to check out the parasha reading, and our fun activity for this this week; if you have ever wondered what justice really is, this activity is for you! Be sure to get your parents permission before you download and print the lesson and activities for this week and learn about the way we can help others recognize that we are growing and maturing everyday (hint: this behavior leads to more freedom for us).

Gesher l'Mitzvah
Join us for the last weeklong Summer Intensives this year!
Holidays and Halacha ran last week and was a deep dive into the
Biblical Holy Days and how to walk in THE WAY Yeshua walked. This weeklong day camp
of friendship, fun, games, and crafts is over until next year. But you did not miss out on ALL
the fun: Make plans to join us in December for a special GLM program and craft just for you!
Hebrew through Liturgy ran last month hosting 10 incredible talmidim who learned the letters of the alef-bet and lots of liturgy while playing games and creating beautiful crafts. At the end of the week they donated over 200 beautifully decorated cookies to a local chairty dinner, the same number to delight our Tuseday night study participants, and Shabbat oneg fellowshipers. Additionally they successfully completed their very own scroll! We are so proud of all the participants of this year's GLM Hebrew through Liturgy Intensive! May your many successes lead to more successful mitzvot!
All the weeklong Gl'M intensives feature crafts, interactive games, and a chance to explore the path to B'nei Mitzvot.
Speak with Mrs. Rivkah or Mrs. Kristen to get more information on the intensives, and all the Gl'M activities today.

They explore their own personal connection with Torah and religion, consider how their walk contributes to their homes, congregations, and communities, and learn the skills needed to complete their ceremony and walk as a fully fledged member of the Brit Ahm Messianic Synagogue.
Though the Ozrim club, Member Intensives, M7 and other activities the GLM yeladim are
tomorrows leaders that the community, and the world, needs today.

We are pretty sure you have, after all you are a brilliant Brit Ahm yeladim! As you grow, this class can give you the tools you need to grow closer to the G-D who created everything, and yet longs for a close relationship with each of us. Gesher l'Mitzvah (bridge to the mitzvah) is just for those special 10 and up who desire to take their relationship with G-D to a higher level. Those precious ones who desire to live the incredible exceptional life that HE specifically and thoughtfully created you for; those who will stand up and receive their royal crown.
