What you are about to read, please remember That God your Father in heaven, who loves you, and asks only that you obey his commandments and repent your sins, so when your time is up He can say to you "Welcome"

Pour ma part, je dois admettre que c'est avec le temps et l'âge que la sagesse m'a permis d'être lent à la colère, pour accomplir la justice de Dieu et de faire honneur au Messie. La parole de Dieu, la vérité, qui est à mon avis le plus grand pouvoir dans ce monde m'habite et je l'aime de tout mon c¿ur. C'est elle qui me donne le goût d'écrire sur elle, le goût de la faire connaître, le goût de la partager avec le plus grand nombre possible. Je crois vraiment que sans elle, je n'aurais pas grand chose à dire ou à écrire. Il y a eu des jours encore cette année où je me suis demandé ce qui m'a changé à ce point et je n'ai pas d'autre réponse à me donner que c'est la parole de Dieu qui l'a fait. Mais la chose est tout simplement magnifique. De vivre dans le royaume des cieux est la chose la plus merveilleuse qui peut arriver à un être humain et c'est ce qui me donne l'envie d'inviter les gens de toutes les nations à venir me rejoindre. Je souhaite de tout c¿ur que c'est ce que mes livres et mes hymnes à mon Dieu feront. C'est exactement pour cette raison que le Messie, Jésus a donné sa vie, pour que nous soyons tous aussi heureux. Bénis soit-il entre tous les hommes qui ont vécu sur cette terre. Jacques prince, disciple de Jésus.

During all the 'HILLTOP' moments in Jesus' life not only he was informed and confirmed by his Father about his true identity and mission, but also he shared those inspirations with his followers. This is what the Scriptures and the Church exhorts us to encounter during our personal prayertime. The author esteems of his retirement-life of solitude as a 'hilltop' milieu, which is very conducive to meditate in the presence of God who is the 'Highest'. According to the author, 'Where the Highest is there the Hilltop is'. And he asserts, the meditations found in this work have been collected when he was at His Highest Place. This book contains 105 weekend meditations, based on Liturgical Years A & B-Sunday Scriptural passages. Author writes in his Forward: I dream to see this work as a handbook to be used either in the hands of every Christian at his/her Sabbath Prayer Hours or at the desks of preachers during the preparation of their Sunday homilies.

In the mid 19th century many Germans migrated to the Midwestern United States. Many of them were influenced by the Reformation as well as the theology of John Calvin. When many of them settled in Illinois, Wisconsin, Missouri, Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska and South Dakota, Adrian Van Vliet, a minister of First Presbyterian Church in Dubuque, Iowa made it his mission to train ministers for these new immigrants. Out of this effort came the University of Dubuque and the University of Dubuque Theological Seminary. A second result was the banding together of 85 churches who formed the German speaking Synod of the West under the authority of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church (USA). For nearly 47 years these churches reached out to the new immigrants and acted as an agent of change to not only evangelize them but also to introduce them into the American way of life and the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) This is the story of that 47 year journey, from 1912 - 1959.Layout and Photographs by Jean E. Straatmeyer

It was the evening of October 26, 1987, in upstate New York. I remember it as well as my birthday. Rev. Penny, the founding pastor of Trinity Temple of the Holy Spirit, read from scripture as she always did as the introduction to her sermon. She looked up at the audience to speak, and her voice changed. It was slightly louder than Rev. Penny's usual feminine voice; it spoke with authority. It said, "Children of God . . ." We realized later that she was channeling in full trance, which means she was not consciously aware of what she was saying. The spirit entity spoke for about twenty minutes and told us that we should wake up to our own divinity because we, and all humanity, are children of the Living God.

Through words and images, Ocean Inspirations will help you discover that tender part of yourself where you can grow and blossom in the journey of your life.

Annabella, Zygamore, Sapphire and Lewis visit a homeless animal shelter to feed the animals. They also go camping, and at night the Shining Stars appear, to praise them for their kind work with the homeless animals.When our kids are now skillfully handling iPads before they're even walking, it's more important than ever to connect them back with nature. Every one of our books have a special message to tell our young readers, most of which relate back to acts of kindness, staying present in the moment, positive thinking, meditation, prayer, creative visualisation, and of course the importance of enjoying the natural gifts that nature has to offer. Our books have helped many young ones develop a love for reading, learning, being more centred and calm, and so many other positive traits ultimately providing them the tools for happiness and success later on in life. We donate a percentage of our book sales to Lady Musgrave Foundation, helping the homeless children and women of Australia, as well as donating our books to schools in Australia, Nepal, the Pacific, especially Papua New Guinea via Books for PNG Kids, and UNICEF. www.thetreethattalks.com

On July 15, 1982, fourteen sailors left the African nation of Cape Verde on the century-old Schooner Ernestina (once a Gloucester fishing vessel, an Arctic exploration ship, and a Cape Verdean-American packet boat). They arrived 41 days later in Newport, Rhode Island, a voyage of 3,400 miles. Under Captain Marcos Lopes's leadership, the crew of seven Cape Verdeans and six Americans made the repatriation voyage entirely under sail, steering by the stars. The cook prepared meals from live animals brought on board. During the journey, which included weeks of becalmed seas, unexpected squalls, and close encounters with freighters, the crew learned to survive and thrive in the tight quarters of the 105-foot vessel. Bringing E Home is the day-to-day journal of a crew member.

In many war torn and poverty stricken regions, the indigenous architecturehas been heavy mud and wattle roofs on thick mud walls. These structures, whilecool in the summer, are of very low strength, are maintenance intensive, are timeconsuming to build, and are largely in massive disrepair. Replacing these mudstructures with the light weight roofs of latex concrete produces a permanentarchitecture significantly more safe and strong, of very low maintenance, and ofremarkably low cost, as the roofs can be built by available unskilled labor. Thetime required for reconstruction is considerably shorter than the time requiredto replace the older heavy construction, and the self-help characteristic of thisnew form of construction leads to more rapid recovery from disaster. This how-to-do-it manual teaches people how to build these new roofs.

Marcellus, like most communities, developed at at the crossroads of two major transportation routes in Central New York State - Nine Mile Creek and Seneca Turnpike.While abundant water and good soil in the area were significant attractions for settlers in the late 1790s, the water power provided by Nine Mile Creek, an outlet of Otisco Lake, was equally important, attracting a variety of individuals who build a diversity of mills (grist, saw, barley and woolen) on its banks.The products of these mills attracted even more individuals to the valley to work in the mills themselves, as well as providing other services for neighboring farmers.Following an old Indian trail, a primitive road had been opened across Onondaga County in the early 1790s and the first settlers came to Marcellus either on foot or horseback, following that old trail. Seneca Turnpike was an outgrowth of what came to be known as the Great Indian Trail, that stretched across the state and became a major highway for people moving from New England and the settled east to what was then the western frontier. The settlement that came to be the Village of Marcellus was located where this highway of east-west travel intersected Nine Mile Creek.During the first fifty years of its existence, the community continued to attract people and industries at a steady pace. As these numbers increased, more people tended to concentrate in the valley that would become the Village, living closer and closer together, in contrast to their rural neighbors. The inhabitants soon began to realize the need for some sort of organization and it was out of this urgency that the Village was incorporated in 1853.During the years up to 1953, the Village of Marcellus changed and yet, it remained the same. In 1853, nestled at the bottom of a valley and surrounded by limestone hills, the sleepy hamlet was a trading center for local farmers and a crossroads for itinerant travelers on their way west. By 1953, it was still a center of the local farm trade, but also a home for hundreds who worked in the manufacturing of agriculture-related products. Its economy had changed, but not dramatically.What had once been a small homogeneous village of about 350 people, similar to each other in background and customs, had become a diverse community of almost 1,400 residents from many different lifestyles. The community was much larger, but the people were still one, now out of many.When it became a Village in 1853, a major concern for the elected Trustees was the animals that roamed the dirt streets that often turned to mud. By 1953, their main concern was the automobiles that clogged the macadamized streets that needed constant repair. Village government had become more complex, yet the problems remained quite similar in nature.In the years that followed incorporation, the residents found it necessary to adapt to many changes in the Village. Many times this took the form of a reworking, a revision, or a modification - usually an improvement on what had been.

This 8x11 book is complete with 145 photographs of the symbols and accomplishments of this highly advanced civilization, that makes Klarfeld's book a spellbinding and ultimately convincing account of non-fiction. "The artifacts left here on earth are convincing evidence of this enormously intelligent species and their many accomplishments," says Klarfeld. "And mankind is their greatest creation."
