\"GOD THROWS THE BEST PARTIES AROUND AND YOUR FAMILY IS INVITED!\"
_...DON'T YOU THINK IT'S TIME YOU CAME AFTER 3500 YEARS?_
From: Mike and Charleen Ecuyer
Date: July 8, 2009
"Is your family caught up in the spiritual rat race?"
We are the joyful parents of 12 children and have witnessed over the
past years how our culture is trying to drain the life out of our
marriages, our children, and our families. It has been our passion to
put a stop to this and see our family experience the abundant life
that Jesus came to provide.
A question we used to ask was: What can we do to walk in the
abundance He provided for us? If you have the same question, don't be
discouraged. God has the answers.
HIS FEASTS ARE A BIG PART OF THE ANSWER!
We became tired of everyone thinking we didn't know how to have fun;
yet had no interest in many worldly celebrations...
We thought Christianity should have a million times more to offer in
celebration than the world.......
We wanted our family to celebrate really meaningful holidays but
unto the Lord.......
We wanted to get to know Jesus in the fullest sense and learn of His
heritage and customs.....
Our Creator so very deserving of more than we were giving to Him. As
we began to learn more and more about His appointed times of feasting
, and began entering into these times of celebration, we noticed a new
joy was rising up in us-- much needed for such a time as these. "His
joy is our strength!" We also saw our family being knit together like
never before! ate 's Feasts CreateClassicamilyMemories!
.Our son, Joshua concludes, "These times spent as a family with the
Lord in celebration have been .a great blessing to me. We have lots of
fun, worshipping, eating new foods, exchanging presents, and learning
more about our Lord!"
GETTING STARTED WAS A BIT OF A CHALLENGE AT FIRST...
At first, it seemed very strange to be celebrating these feasts,
when no one around us had even heard of them.
The Lord confirmed His desire through some connections we had made
with churches across the nation..
You may think it is strange to celebrate Hebrew feasts as a
Christian, but remember we are grafted in and the seed of Abraham.....
*
Other people may act like what you are doing is a bit weird.
*
Hebrew foods may not be what you are used to.
*
Your family may not be open to a change.
BUT THE LORD SAID WHEN WE SEEK HIM FIRST
ALL THINGS WILL BE ADDED TO US...
We decided We would obey what we believed the Word and Holy Spirit
were leading us to do..
That made all the difference in the world!
Our family started off by celebrating the Passover every year --
(very much like communion). They began to look forward to this time.
We read books and listened to teachings regarding celebrating these
feasts that helped propel us into looking for more and more times of
feasting with our Creator!
.. Robert D. Heidler's book, The Messianic Church Arising, an
excellent resource you will want to order as you dig
deeper into the wonder of celebrating these appointed feasts.
Our family has been so very blessed as we have learned more about
our Father in Heaven's character through our times of feasting. His
desire is for us to taste and see His goodness in ways much of the
church hasn't experienced before.
We knew all of our brothers and sisters in Christ needed to hear
about the Lord's desire for us to celebrate these feasts, and learn
how to really commune with Him. That's why we created:

"Blessed are the people that know the joyful sound; they shall walk,
O Lord, in the light of thy countenance, In thy name shall they
rejoice all the day; and in thy righteousness shall they be exalted."
Psalm 89:15-16
"By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king; for
he endured, as seeing him who is invisible. Through faith he kept the
passover, and the sprinkling of blood, lest he that destroyed the
firstborn should touch them." Hebrews 11:27-28
."Purge out therefore the old leaven, that you may be a new lump,
as ye are unleavened. For even, Christ our passover is sacrificed for
us; Therefore let us keep the feast, not with leaven of malice and
wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth." I
