Dear wonderful OFRH family,

To each of you whom we’ve heard from this past month, special thanks. I am so grateful that, when you make us aware of specific prayer needs, our faithful board members lift them to the Lord. I also want to thank you for your gifts and encouraging words which keep us going.

Dr. Fuller has been teaching from the small but powerful Epistle of Jude during April, and he’ll continue there for two more Sundays in May. Jude, the brother of Jesus and James, wrote his beautiful doxology which we find in verse 24 and which begins, “Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, and to make you stand in the presence of His glory blameless with great joy… “ (NASB). Oh, how we need our Savior! By “stumbling” Jude doesn’t refer is to life’s little disturbances or even the very difficult trials that the Lord permits in your life as part of the refining process. Rather, Jude is proclaiming that your Lord will get you safely into His presence in eternity. It’s His power that keeps you. He loses none who are His because Jesus paid it all. And joy? We can’t fathom even a fraction of the joy we’ll know! Hallelujah!

Here’s a joyful response from Virginia: “I turned on my radio and heard the broadcast of messages and old songs. I was so thrilled because you can’t hear anymore gospels and old favorites and hymns on the radio. How I wish that these songs can be played during the night….”

Perhaps you also would love to hear some of your favorite hymns whenever you choose – and you can! We offer 7 separate CDs of “Gospel Favorites,” each with more than 20 hymns. If you’d like a list of the hymns on those 7 CDs, simply send your request and we’ll get that list to you.

After we leave Jude, we’ll be stopping off to visit the brief but wonderful letter Paul wrote to Philemon. And then we’ll be on our way to a lengthy stay in the Book of Genesis. What a great time to invite friends and family to join us. To help you in that endeavor, if you’d like a supply of introductory flyers to distribute, just let us know. And to our Savior be glory, majesty, dominion and authority.

Looking forward to hearing from you,
