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 we continue in Devarim or "words".  Most of the words spoken in this book would have been unnecessary if only the people of G-D would have been obedient.  Our parasha is Vaetchanan means "I pleaded" and is such a sad beginning to a parasha because it opens with Moshe pleading with G-D to be allowed to ender the promised land.  G-D has previously said that because Moshe disobeyed HIM and misrepresented HIS generosity and good character when he beat the rock that brought forth water (Remember the rock that followed B'nei Yisrael in the wilderness was "The ROCK" that pours forth living water) instead of talking to it, that Moshe would not enter the land of Yisrael with the people.  Moshe is pleading with G-d to let him enter the good land.  This week we are also once again reading the history of the making of the Tabernacle.  As we read we find that Moses asked the Children of Israel to give donations to build the items needed for the Tabernacle.  In Exodus 35:21 we read: 21 Everyone whose heart stirred him and everyone whose spirit was willing came and brought Adonai’s offering for the work of the Tent of Meeting and for all its service as well as for the holy garments. Two things you should notice as we read our parsha.  First, Ad-nai stirred their hearts and secondly, they had to have willing spirits.  Just like those people long ago, when Ad-nai wants you to bless His kingdom.  He will stir your hearts to give, but you also must have a willing spirit. In 2 Corinthians 9:7 we are reminded:  7 Let each one give as he has decided in his heart, not grudgingly or under compulsion—for God loves a cheerful giver. The history we read in Torah is as changeable and flawed as the humans that live it out today.  Always remember that through it all, and often in spite of our choices, G-D is faithful and true, traveling with us and seeing us through.  If you would like to learn the shema, the word of our faith, our  activity this week that makes it easy;  if you have ever wondered what the watchword of our faith 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).  (links are below attached to the cartoons of children.). Remember too, that the GLM Holidays and Halacha is coming SOON.  Register today.
OUR VISION:
Our vision is to see children grow and flourish spiritually in their relationship with Messiah Yeshua and become solid, strong disciples who will spread the Good News to everyone with whom they come in contact, with joy and zeal.
OUR CLASSROOM GOAL:
To guide our children in beginning and strengthening a relationship with Messiah Yeshua by understanding and fully grasping the lessons and concepts in Scripture. To encourage a strong identity as Messianic believers with the whole of B'nei Yisrael.

Hebrew Intensive

yad we made
Gesher l'Mitzvah means; Bridge to the Commandment.
Students or "talmidim" learn valuable skills and create a portfolio of work and service that bridge the space between childhood, and being a son or daughter of the the commandments, a Bar or Bat Mitzvah.   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.  

Have you ever considered your place in the world?  Have you ever thought about your relationship with THE CREATOR of the UNIVERSE?  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.  Watch this space for upcoming events and more info!
