Thank You from the Administrator<br />
DDear Friends:<br />
Another year has come and is almost gone. Where does the time go.<br />
Everyone at <strong>Moriel</strong> is just so thankful for everyone’s support and help<br />
throughout the year.<br />
"MORIEL"<br />
GOD IS MY TEACHER<br />
Thank you and new security project at Ebowyn<br />
Your timely contributions, despite the downturn in the economy will allow us to complete<br />
some more of our needed security projects in South Africa. <strong>The</strong> last night I visited<br />
Ebowyn, our South African Home for orphans, we had an intruder. It was a scary episode<br />
for everyone. Dave and Christopher bravely went forth into the dark storm ridden night<br />
and searched the premises to ensure the everyone’s safety. Two years ago we were able to<br />
complete two sides of the compound with a 10 foot high concrete wall and the other two<br />
sides with Palisade fencing (strong steal fencing), but even this has proved inadequate at<br />
times. So, we have decided to enclose the compounds two sides that have the steel fencing<br />
with a concrete wall. At some future point we might enhance the compound with some<br />
motion detectors as well perimeter lighting. While the world has always been violent, we<br />
know our Lord told us there would be an increase in violence. In the 3rd world we are<br />
seeing this increase at a faster pace than the West. In South Africa and other African countries<br />
the lack of the fear of God combined with lack of resources, bribes, and corruption<br />
have only led to the breakdown of society and those things the Lord warned us about in<br />
the last days. While these things don’t shake us (we have read of the dangers of the mission<br />
field from those that went before us), we do these things because Jesus told us to, but<br />
increases in violence only show us that we are to look up for our redemption draws near.<br />
Last chance for Renewing your Free <strong>Moriel</strong> Quarterly 2010<br />
As many of you know <strong>Moriel</strong> creates and distributes the <strong>Moriel</strong> Quarterly at no cost, but<br />
let us know if you want it for another year. Please remember even if you just signed up<br />
for <strong>The</strong> <strong>Moriel</strong> Quarterly in September, you must send in your renewal. Just put a stamp<br />
on the enclosed envelope, along with your name and address. We want to be able to continue<br />
sending the Quarterly out to those of you who want it for free.<br />
Jacob 2010 and Health Issues<br />
Jacob returns in early Jan and has a long trip away from home. Please continue to pray for<br />
him as he does miss his wife and family while on tour. Although travel is seen as exotic,<br />
his schedule is really extremely rough on the mind and body. With his health problems,<br />
we have elected to let Jacob rest during the week, instead of doing midweek sessions. He<br />
will be handling some doctors appointments while he is here. Jacob got a good report that<br />
his arrhythmia has responded to the medication, but the medication has some unwanted<br />
side effects, such as acid reflux. Also, he is wearing a sleep apnea machine. As you know<br />
Jacob likes to walk back and forth on the stage, and he doesn’t slow down in bed. He<br />
turns back and forth as normal with some people, but this causes his mask to slip, air<br />
escapes and he wakes up. Please keep his health issues in your prayers. His schedule can<br />
be found in this issue as well as an updated schedule on the web. See you there.<br />
<strong>Moriel</strong> and Israel<br />
<strong>Moriel</strong> is now helping more congregations in Israel due to your continued support and<br />
love of Israel. As Israel is now surrounded by enemies on every side, support from the<br />
new American administration is almost non-existent making things tougher in Israel, but<br />
more and more Jews are coming to a knowledge that Yeshua is the Messiah of Israel.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re is growth, but with growth there are also needs to help these new believers, please<br />
continue to help us support these needs. <strong>The</strong> poverty in Israel is increasing with the influx<br />
of immigrants, also combine this with the economic downturn, things are tough all over.<br />
So, we want to thank you for thinking of your new brothers and sisters in Israel as well as<br />
those friends you have read about in the Quarterly and we pray the Lord will bless your<br />
house and the work of your hands in the coming year.<br />
Honor those who deserve honor<br />
We want to publicly thank all those who contribute their time and talent to <strong>Moriel</strong>. I want<br />
to acknowledge Wayne and Sharon A. for their unfailing support over the years. Wayne<br />
and Sharon have produced all the media for <strong>Moriel</strong> USA, Canada and for others of you<br />
around the world. Sharon’s mom and dad have failing health, so we ask for prayers for<br />
all of them as they go through this tough time.<br />
<strong>Moriel</strong> 2010<br />
Please pray for <strong>Moriel</strong> as we head into this next year. <strong>Moriel</strong> needs mission volunteers<br />
for South Africa, also the health issues for those of us that are getting older. Also, please<br />
pray for faithful volunteers to enter into <strong>Moriel</strong> in the various places around the world.<br />
Please pray for God’s continued guidance and mercy on all of us in the coming year. May<br />
the Lord bless you all..<br />
In Peace,<br />
