Let’s Reveal The Father’s Love!

We have heard for over a year how ISIS (ISIL) has been on the attack against Christians in Syria, Turkey, Iraq and other regions in the Middle East. Our brethren have had to flee to the mountains and have received very little help. If these Christians (many who watched in horror as their children and other family members be tortured and sacrificed in front of them), have been on your heart, we have a ministry contact that is on the ground helping them.

Please prayerfully give a donation to help these Christians who are in tribulation and are suffering greatly for their faith. 100% of your gift will be given for the purpose. Dr. Ron Patterson at CDR wrote, “I have returned from the Middle East after seeing firsthand the true face of Islam, and it is evil… Christians and minority Kurds are being slaughtered daily… Not so long ago there were hundreds of thousands of Christians in Iraq. Now Christians are hiding in three locations and they need emergency assistance. Only a very few Christian Relief Organizations are providing aid and they need our help.”

Please – help me help them! As the apostle Paul taught, when one part of the body hurts, the whole body hurts and all suffer with it; but if one is honored, all members rejoice. (1 Cor 1:26 paraphrased) Please help me to honor our displaced brethren, and honor the lives of the 21 Christians we saw publicly beheaded by ISIS. Together, let’s help equip the response team there!

Please memo the donation “ISIS Refugees” and know that 100% of all funds collected for this effort will be sent to the Disaster Relief fund and used exclusively for this purpose.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful consideration.

In the Father’s love,
Judy Bauman

Please forgive this delayed update. I appreciate all the precious notes I received and prayers lifted up for my brother’s family and for me. I want to get back to you individually, but I have been a bit overwhelmed. I have wrestled with this personal loss, but God has been good to minister to me. He does comfort those who mourn and I know your prayers were instrumental in that comfort. Thank you!

As the Lord told Joshua, after Moses had been dead for 30 days, it was time to cross the river. It is time to cross the river and take the land that God has given us. The Father’s love will change the landscape of what is going on around us. I see many are frightened by everyday news, but I am here to tell you that God is not surprised by any of it! In fact, Jesus warned us that tribulation would come. He Himself, along with Paul, John, Peter, James, and Jude gave us instructions on how to get through it all and get under the mission of God. (Submit!) Our Father is not surprised or shocked by ANYTHING happening in the world right now. Therefore, when we feel fear, when we are in need, we need to go boldly to the Throne of Grace and see what is happening from God’s perspective. This is the perspective of heaven and when we have it, we will be confident that we are more than conquerors! We will know what He is telling us to do about it. (See Hebrews 4:14-16; Romans 8:37) Amen!

I have just one request at this time since I will not be traveling on missions, and that is to give a tax-deductible contribution for the Ugandan children’s Christmas fund. As always, 100% donated will go for this purpose.

Again, thank you for praying for me and for the ministry, and thank you for your thoughtful contribution.

Just now I received an urgent request for funds to transport 300 children who were abducted from Uganda and taken to a neighboring country. These children were rescued 5 days ago and they are just waiting for help. We only need $150 to get them home! Any addition funds that come in will be sent for their needs (i.e.: food, water, medical care). Please, please – help me help these children! Go to www.thefathersloveim.org to give through PayPal. May we be the hands and feet of Jesus!

Thank you for your thoughtful consideration.

Sincerely,

Our hands are tied in many cases for the simple reason we do not have the funds available. If this ministry has been a blessing to you, would you pledge to make a monthly or quarterly tax-deductible contribution? We could then budget funds for immediate relief to those in need. Please, join hands with us! Unlike a huge organization where your gift can be like a drop in the ocean, donations given to The Father’s Love Int’l can truly make a difference in individual lives.

The Father’s Love Mission’s Update

“Jewels from the River” is now in the hands of the publisher. I will make an announcement when it’s available. Everything comes forth in its proper season! How the Lord is going to use the encounters with Him, which I share in this book, is a mystery to me, but I know He has a plan. The only thing God requires of any of us is to say, “Yes, Lord!” In the meantime, I continue to seek God’s will, share what the Holy Spirit reveals, and stand with Pastor Peter in Uganda. By the way, both children (George and Allan) are doing very well after their reconstructive surgeries’. Thank you so much for your prayers and support.

The Lord has been kind to give me a glimpse for the ministry, and I believe there will be a mission trip yet this year. The directive the Lord gave to ‘Clean the Wells of Your Inheritance’ is still very much on my mind and in my heart. This has led me to look into my European roots and specifically my Welsh heritage. It is peculiar to me that the Lord took me to Israel to show the importance of that legacy! The Holy Spirit also gave a word that the Church is in a season where we need to “PREPARE” for the wave to come. ‘Cleaning the Wells’ is vital to that preparation.

If you would like to read those two words, please visit:

P.S. After writing this newsletter, I decided to look up and read about the Welsh Revival. You can imagine my utter shock when I came upon an article in Charisma Magazine about Redigging the Wells of the Welsh Revival! I was in Israel the same year this pastor and his team traveled to Wales, but this article was published the day after my birthday this year! What a wonderful gift!!! (Thank You for the confirmation, Father! You bring all things together in perfect timing.)

Grace and peace to you and yours this Passover Season!

I greet you in the Father’s love as we celebrate God’s greatest gift to mankind in the life, death and resurrection of His Son, Jesus our Messiah! Glory to God!

Book Update

Please forgive my lack of communication these past few months. When the Lord commissioned me to write the book, “Jewels from the River,” I thought a lot of the material would be from what I had already written. However, as I read through my journals from when these personal encounters with the Lord first began, I came to realize the first ones were very foundational. I believe the book is about a month away from being sent to the publisher. It will be available both in paperback and eBook. If you would like to reserve a paperback copy, please let me know.

A Little Leaven

This may seem an odd thing to share, especially at Passover,[i] but I keep finding myself drawn to a Scripture in Matthew 13:33. Jesus describes a woman working leaven (yeast) into three lumps of dough. He says that this is likened to the kingdom of heaven. The “leaven of heaven” works to infuse the Father’s love into people’s hearts and this raises our hope and faith. The God of all Hope wants to lighten our load and give the peace that surpasses all understanding.

While Jesus warned against the leaven of Herod (worldliness), the Pharisees (hypocrisy), and the Sadducees (error), He does want the leaven of heaven to be worked in us. We must learn to rise above and see from the Father’s perspective – because we can! God even invites us to do this boldly.[ii]It is my hope that this book will help raise people’s faith and lift our hope in God’s unfailing love. Jesus really does want us to personally know Him by His Spirit.

The Father’s Love Mission’s Update

Several leaders have asked me to come back to Uganda and hold another Pastor’s Conference. A teaching has been brooding in my spirit recently, and it is my desire that the Lord will open the door for me to share it there. I believe if I touch the leaders with a specific message from the Father, then they can in turn touch their congregations, and their flocks will then touch their families and community. This is my hope.

Since I have an open invitation to teach through radio there, that will expand the message into regions of Kenya, the Congo, Sudan and Tanzania. While this is a very effective way to minister to the church there, I do not want to go anywhere the Lord is not specifically directing me to go. Please pray and see if the Lord would have you support this trip.

It is my prayer that you have a blessed time as you celebrate Passover/Resurrection Sunday. This is a holiday that I believe we will celebrate all throughout eternity!

May this letter find you thriving in God’s grace!
Recently I was able to talk with Pastor Peter via Skype about Christmas. He told me that they desire to do something special for the children at the school for Christmas, but there are no funds for it. Each year we have collected donations to bless these children at Christmas and I would like to be able to bless them again this year.

Pastor Peter told me that it would be “EPIC” if the children could have some rice, a little meat and a soda as a treat. They rarely get meat and coke is especially a favorite! As all children are, George is also is hopeful that they will have a special time at Christmas. Pastor Peter reports that the children have been practicing Christmas carols and plan to go around the village singing and bringing holiday cheer to those there. He also desires to have enough to be able to take some food to the elderly there in the village.

Will you help to make this Christmas special for these children in Kyampisi, Uganda? It is my hope that you will join us in making their ‘Yuletide Bright’! Please send your tax-deductable gift by check or money order to:

Dear Friends of The Father’s Love Int’l Ministries,
 
Please forgive my delay in sending you an update for both the ministry and news concerning little George (the boy who needed surgery after being attacked).  Communication has been difficult, but what I have been able to gather is the surgery has been a lifesaver and George is bounding with energy and life. Thank God for the doctors who donated their services in Australia. It is amazing how God put all that together. I believe when we rejoice in what God is doing in others, God will touch our prayers in a special way.  George is said to be very intelligent and thoughtful for his young age of 5. Recently one of the workers at the school posted a short conversation she had with George on her facebook page. It went like this:
George - "There will be no sleeping in heaven." 
Her reply: “Why do you say that George?"
George - "Because the light that shines from God, will keep everyone awake!"
 
According to Pastor Peter, he has wonderful insights like this all the time. I know that he will have testimonies of God’s goodness, faithfulness and love that will change nations! Thank you for whatever part you did to help this miracle come about. Obviously there are going to be ongoing medical needs, so if you choose to continue to sow into his life you can send a donation to the address below or through PayPal online and 100% received will go to him (put “George” in the memo).
 
Since the Holy Spirit has been speaking mostly personal words and direction for the ministry, I haven’t had much to send out publically.  I am not one to send a post out unless the Lord has directed it, but I do want to let you know I will soon have an exciting announcement to make – likely in October. So watch for that news! In the meantime, I do have some financial needs for the ministry. If The Father’s Love has been a blessing to you, donations would be appreciated. You may give an offering online by credit card at www.thefathersloveim.org or send a check or money order to:

Dear Friends of The Father’s Love Int’l Ministries,
 
OH REJOICE WITH ME! I just got the best Mother's Day gift a 'Jajjah' could receive.  God is so great and He is so good to do what He’s done for my spiritual son’s spiritual son!!! Peter Sewakiryanga was interviewed by the Sydney Morning Herald about this medical situation concerning 5 year old George (See link below). I was blessed beyond measure and full of joy when I saw this picture from the newspaper!
 
There are no words to describe my gratitude for all of you who TOOK ACTION to help George! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! Glory to God for the doors only He could open for this child’s surgery and recovery!   It is your gifts and prayers that made the difference and no doubt there will be a special jewel in your crown with his name on it! 
If you feel the Lord is leading you to participate in the fruitfulness of this ministry through giving, you may donate online through PayPal atwww.thefathersloveim.org or send a check or money order to:

Grace and peace to you and yours!

It is my prayer this letter finds you well.  If you have read my posts for any amount of time, you have heard me share that it is the Lord’s desire for us to do and say only what He is doing and saying.  While on this earth, Jesus was in perfect unity with the Father’s will in all He said and did.  That amazes me!  We are to follow His example.  We need to do what He’s shown us even if we feel we are high up in a tree, at the farthest tip of a tiny, frail little limb.  The Father has promised that if He has called us out on a limb, He will hold it up!  Praise God!  Only He could do such a thing!!!  (See vision: limb)

The heart of God for the mission trip I shared with you last month to both western and eastern Europe is just such a limb!  (If you didn’t receive that update, click Jan2012) I believe the Father is going to touch Europe with His love in an extraordinary way in 2012.  I know when it comes to mission trips: one plants, another waters, but it is God who brings forth the growth!  How the Father intends to touch the land through my journey there – I don’t know – that’s up to Him; but I believe He intends to do something significant across Europe this year.  The “wells of inheritance” will flow from God’s throne room – all things are possible for those who believe! (See wellsofinheritance)  

For the most part religious institutions have kept the people from knowing the Father’s love; only a few enjoy a personal and loving relationship with Jesus.  While many have rejected Him, God has not rejected Europe!  He is calling to her to WAKE UP and return to Him.  Jesus revealed in the parable we know as the “Prodigal Son,” that the father ran to greet his lost son as he returned home; and I see this is how our heavenly Father desires to run and embrace His lost children in Europe! I am convinced that it is His desire to reveal His heart toward them in a fresh and understandable manner.  (See Luke 15:11-32)

“Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? And how can anyone preach unless they are sent? As it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!” Romans 10:13-15

My heart burns whenever I read what Paul wrote in 1 Corinthians 9:16, “For when I preach the gospel, I cannot boast, since I am compelled to preach. Woe to me if I do not preach the gospel!” (Emphasis mine)

Will you join your heart with mine to be part of releasing the Father’s love in Europe by “sending me”?  If so, you may give online through PayPal atwww.thefathersloveim.org, or by mailing a check or money order to:
