Legacy Letter January 2016

IN THIS LETTER: Jericho and the Days of Unleavened Bread ● Lessons for Today – Dear Friends and Fellow Laborers, Ancient Jericho was a great fortified Canaanite city located on the west side of the Jordan River at the confluence of several trading routes. Jericho was famous for its high double walls built of bricks on top of a stone retaining wall foundation…

20 August 2014, EXODUS 17:14-16 – And the LORD said unto Moses, Write this for a memorial in a book, and rehearse it in the ears of Joshua: for I will utterly put out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven. And Moses built an altar, and called the name of it Jehovahnissi 1: For he said, Because the LORD hath sworn that the LORD will have war with Amalek from generation to generation. – Dear Friends and Fellow Laborers, Who is Amalek and why does God swear that He will have war with Amelek in every generation?

Dear Friends and Fellow Laborers, At Legacy Foundation Leadership Training Center here in Chiang Mai, we just completed a very special project. Four young ladies were sent by the Royal Palace to participate in an intensive English training program for six weeks. All four work at Queen Sirikit’s SUPPORT Foundation museum displaying the “Arts of the Kingdom.” This museum is housed in the royal Ananta Samakom Throne Hall, part of the royal complex in Bangkok. They have already graduated with degrees from Kasetsart University in Bangkok and have had some English training. The intensive English language curriculum was designed by our volunteer teacher Julia Stewart, who also taught the classes. Julia herself took part in an intensive crash course and received a TESOL (teach English to speakers of other languages) certificate from Cornerstone University. The young ladies not only had classroom instruction, but participated in real life experience as well by going out into the public and practicing English with Western tourists. They also took part in other classes taught at Legacy (Advanced English, Public Speaking, Sports, and even Sabbath services). The aim was to boost their conversational skills as well as their confidence.

IN THIS LETTER: Correction ● Legacy Foundation Graduation ● Trip to the Border ● Passover in Burma – Dear Friends and Fellow laborers, CORRECTION – The first thing I want to do in this letter is apologize for getting some dates incorrect in my January letter. It is unforgivable since these dates were for annual Holy Sabbaths. In my January letter, I talked about the predicted Blood Moon eclipses on the Passover and Holy Day of the Feast of Tabernacles, both this year (2014) and in 2015. Also predicted are two solar eclipses in 2015. The first is on Nisan 1, the beginning of the Hebrew sacred year; and the second solar eclipse takes place on the Feast of Trumpets.
