OUR 2009 IS ENDING WITH SUCCESS

Dear Friends of Blossoming Rose,

In this Hanukkah/Christmas season, I want to say how much I appreciate your interest, prayers and support.  Indeed, in this “giving” season, I give thanks especially to all of my friends who have already expressed support for our travel programs, educational activities, and Biblical Tamar Park program.

Many of us know that the ancient Jewish prophet Zachariah (4:6) had it quite right when he said that it was “not by might nor by power but by my Spirit says the Lord.”  We accomplish more when we are confident that we are led by His spirit.  We can rest our case, with full peace, after we leave our programs with the Lord.

I have attached a recent news release that I thought you might like to read.  Please feel free to give it on to your friends, also.  I am also attaching the itinerary for our 2010 February Tour for your review.  I would certainly like to have you travel with me to Israel and visit OUR Biblical Tamar Park.  You may have read in our JOURNAL this month the many good things that are happening at the Park.  We now have full time managers, Darick and Kate Beishir and also a full-time consultant, Alan Vanderkolk.  My, how God works when we are ready and willing.

We should be in Phase II in our plan to build Biblical Tamar Park by February.  This will include the building of a welcome center, museum, library and three institutes with volunteer housing. We, of course, must have your support to finish the Park and to incur no debt.  If you wish to honor someone, please do so with a generous gift to Blossoming Rose for the Park and include that person’s name. A brass plaque will be placed in the building designated.

Our web site (www.blossomingrose.org) is available for you to contribute online. Simply click on to our web address and you will be able to follow the menu to give your gift. You can also give monthly or a one-time gift directly from your bank to ours.  Please read the simple directions for giving either way on our web site. 

You can also continue to slip the check in the mail to us and when your envelope is opened your gift will be deposited with great joy.
 

Thanks for being a part of our family this year.

May the blessings of Abraham pass to you and

your future generations.

Shalom.
