- Urgent Appeal for Help from Jehovah Saints
Urgent Appeal for Help from Jehovah Saints Dear Friends and Supporters, Jehovah Saints has received no donations in 2025 so far. We truly need your help more than you realize. The Reality of Homelessness Current Situation: There are people sleeping on concrete sidewalks in the cold and others on the ground with no food to eat. Our Mission: We are passionate about building homeless shelters throughout the world and have successfully built five so far. This is a serious matter that needs to be addressed. Every donation, no matter the amount, helps more than you realize. The Need for Compassion Local Impact: How many homeless people do you have in your area? Consider that number multiplied by millions of cities across the United States. Statistics: There are over 650,000 homeless people in the USA and approximately 150 million homeless worldwide, according to the United Nations. Show compassion and love to your neighbor, which is everyone. If your neighbor was sleeping on the ground, would you help them? I would. This is the reason I started the organization to begin with. The Consequences of Inaction If you don’t eat well and sleep on the cold, hard ground, you become ill. Biblical Guidance The Bible teaches us about the importance of helping those in need: Matthew 6:19-21: “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal. But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven... For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” Matthew 25:35-40: “For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in... The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’” If you feel it in your heart to help your neighbor get off that cold, hard ground, then donate today and show God you love Him. Every time you help someone, no matter how small the act, you are helping Jesus and building treasures in heaven. You cannot take your earthly treasures with you. God bless you, and I look forward to your support of our mission to end homelessness worldwide. Sincerely, Michael Hopkins Chief Executive Officer Jehovah Saints International Preachers talk about salvation, yet they don't talk about saving the homeless, the poor and needy. If you really want to save someone from dying which would be salvation from mortal death, donate today and save a life.

- Jehovah Saints Sunday Service, Malawi
Report by Pastor Victor K Phiri of Jehovah Saints Church Malawi Sunday Service: Marvelous Wonderful Grace Scripture Reference: Titus 2:11-15 Verse 11: “God’s marvelous grace has manifested in person, bringing salvation for everyone.” Explanation: This verse emphasizes that God's grace is not just an abstract concept but has been revealed through Jesus Christ, offering salvation to all humanity. It highlights the inclusivity of God's saving grace. Verse 12: “This same grace teaches us how to live each day as we turn our backs on ungodliness and indulgent lifestyles, and it equips us to live self-controlled, upright, godly lives in this present age.” Explanation: Grace is portrayed as a teacher that guides believers away from sin and towards a life of righteousness. It empowers us to resist temptation and live in a way that honors God. Verse 13: “For we continue to wait for the fulfillment of our hope in the dawning splendor of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus, the Anointed One.” Explanation: This verse encourages believers to maintain hope and anticipation for Christ’s return, reminding us that our present struggles are temporary compared to the glory that awaits us. Verse 14: “He sacrificed himself for us that he might purchase our freedom from every lawless deed and to purify for himself a people who are his very own, passionate to do what is beautiful in his eyes.” Explanation: Jesus’ sacrifice is highlighted as the means of our redemption. It calls us to be a distinct people, committed to living in a way that pleases God, reflecting His beauty in our actions. Verse 15: “So preach these truths and exhort others to follow them. Be willing to expose sin in order to bring correction with full authority, without being intimidated by anyone.” Explanation: Paul instructs Titus to boldly proclaim the truth of the Gospel, including the necessity of confronting sin. This emphasizes the role of church leaders in guiding their congregations towards holiness. Main Message Focus on God’s Grace: Pastor Victor emphasized that God’s grace should not be misconstrued as a license to sin. Instead, it should motivate us to live holy lives. Many believe they can sin willfully because of God's forgiveness, but this mindset is deceptive. Living a Life Pleasing to God: The grace of God should lead us away from ungodliness and indulgent lifestyles. When we sin, we should feel unworthy and driven to seek forgiveness, striving to be different from the world. Self-Control and Witness: As believers, we must exercise self-control and be mindful of our actions, knowing that the world is watching. Our lives should reflect Christ’s teachings, and we must be above reproach. The Church’s Mission: While awaiting Jesus’ return, the church must focus on making disciples and stop internal conflicts. Jesus has purchased our freedom from sin, and we are called to prepare for His return. Preaching the Truth: Pastor Victor urged leaders to preach the Word boldly, rather than seeking to please people. He warned against the dangers of ignoring sin within the church, citing the example of Eli and his sons. Correction and Accountability: It is vital for church leaders to address sin, both in themselves and in their congregations. Believers should lovingly correct their leaders if they are living in sin, fostering a culture of accountability. Worship and Focus on Jesus: Ultimately, the focus of the church should be on Jesus. He deserves all our worship and praise, and we must lift Him up above all else. Pastor Victor concluded with a call to action for the church to embrace the grace of God, live righteously, and fulfill the Great Commission. He encouraged everyone to worship Jesus wholeheartedly, recognizing Him as the source of our salvation and strength. Closing Prayer A prayer for strength, guidance, and a renewed commitment to live in accordance with God's grace and truth. Hallelujah to the Lamb! Conclusion: Join Us in Bringing Hope to the Homeless At Jehovah Saints, we are committed to being the hands and feet of Christ by providing safe shelters, warm meals, and hope to those in need. Our mission to build homeless shelters around the world is inspired by Jesus’ words: “Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me” (Matthew 25:40).

- Report: Sunday Service by Pastor Nadeem of Jehovah Saints Pakistan
Sunday Service by Pastor Nadeem of Jehovah Saints Pakistan Subject: Reflection on Mark 2:23-28 Date: February 16, 2025 Pastor Nadeem of Jehovah Saints Pakistan shared his Sunday service message based on Mark 2:23-28, a passage that highlights Jesus’ teaching on the true purpose of the Sabbath. In this account, Jesus responds to the Pharisees’ criticism of His disciples for picking grain on the Sabbath, emphasizing the importance of compassion over legalism and His authority as the Lord of the Sabbath. This lesson serves as a reminder for believers to focus on the spirit of God’s law rather than its rigid interpretation and to embrace the Sabbath as a gift for rest and renewal. Key Scripture: Mark 2:23-28 1. The Pharisees’ Legalism "Look, why are they doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath?" (Mark 2:24) The Pharisees accused Jesus’ disciples of breaking Sabbath laws by picking grain. Their focus on strict rule-keeping blinded them to the greater purpose of God’s commands. 2. Jesus’ Response "The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. So the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath." (Mark 2:27-28) Jesus reminds the Pharisees that the Sabbath was created for humanity’s benefit, not as a burden. He also asserts His divine authority as the Lord of the Sabbath, pointing to His role as the ultimate interpreter of God’s law. Themes and Lessons from the Passage 1. Compassion Over Legalism Jesus uses the example of David eating the consecrated bread (1 Samuel 21:1-6) to illustrate that human need and compassion take precedence over rigid legalism. Supporting Scripture: Micah 6:8 "He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God." God desires mercy and justice over strict adherence to ritual. Supporting Scripture: Matthew 12:7 "If you had known what these words mean, ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice,’ you would not have condemned the innocent." Jesus reiterates the importance of mercy in understanding God’s commands. 2. The Purpose of the Sabbath The Sabbath was instituted as a day of rest, worship, and renewal. Jesus emphasizes that it was designed for humanity’s well-being, not as a burden. Supporting Scripture: Exodus 20:8-10 "Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a sabbath to the Lord your God." The Sabbath is a day set apart for rest and spiritual focus. Supporting Scripture: Isaiah 58:13-14 "If you call the Sabbath a delight and the Lord’s holy day honorable, and if you honor it by not going your own way, then you will find your joy in the Lord." This verse highlights the Sabbath as a blessing and a source of joy. 3. Jesus’ Authority as Lord of the Sabbath By declaring Himself the "Lord of the Sabbath," Jesus asserts His divine authority over the law and reveals His identity as the Son of God. Supporting Scripture: John 1:1-3 "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. Through Him all things were made." As the Creator, Jesus has authority over all things, including the Sabbath. Supporting Scripture: Colossians 1:16-17 "For in Him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through Him and for Him." This verse underscores Jesus’ sovereignty over all creation. Reflection on Pastor Nadeem’s Message Pastor Nadeem’s teaching on Mark 2:23-28 challenges believers to: Embrace God’s Compassion: Understand that God values mercy and human need above rigid rule-following. Honor the Sabbath: Recognize the Sabbath as a gift from God for rest, renewal, and worship, not as a burden. Submit to Jesus’ Authority: Trust in Jesus as the Lord of all, including the Sabbath, and follow His teachings with humility and faith. Encouragement for the Church in Pakistan Pastor Nadeem’s message is especially relevant for the church in Pakistan, where believers face many challenges. The reminder to focus on God’s compassion and rest in His authority is a source of encouragement and strength in difficult times. Additional Scripture for Encouragement Psalm 46:10 "Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth." This verse encourages believers to find peace in God’s presence, especially on the Sabbath. Matthew 11:28-30 "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls." Jesus invites all to rest in Him, reflecting the true purpose of the Sabbath. Pastor Nadeem’s Sunday service on Mark 2:23-28 reminds believers of the heart of God’s law: compassion, mercy, and rest. The Sabbath is a gift meant to bless and restore, not to burden. Jesus, as the Lord of the Sabbath, calls us to trust in His authority and embrace His teachings with faith and humility. Let us continue to pray for Pastor Nadeem, the Jehovah Saints Church in Pakistan, and their mission to grow in faith and share God’s love with their community. Conclusion: Join Us in Bringing Hope to the Homeless At Jehovah Saints, we are committed to being the hands and feet of Christ by providing safe shelters, warm meals, and hope to those in need. Our mission to build homeless shelters around the world is inspired by Jesus’ words: “Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me” (Matthew 25:40).

- Report: Pastor Amin Gill of Jehovah Saints Church in Pakistan
Report: Pastor Amin Gill of Jehovah Saints Church in Pakistan Subject: Sunday Lesson on Acts Chapter 3 Pastor Amin Gill of the Jehovah Saints Church in Pakistan recently shared details about a Sunday lesson focused on the Acts of the Apostles, Chapter 3 . The lesson highlighted the powerful story of Saint Peter and Saint John healing a paralytic at the Beautiful Gate of the temple in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. This account serves as a profound reminder of the authority and power believers have through the name of Jesus and the importance of faith in God’s miraculous works. Key Scriptures from Acts Chapter 3 1. Acts 3:6 "Then Peter said, 'Silver or gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.'" This verse captures the essence of the Sunday lesson. Peter and John did not rely on material wealth but on the power of Jesus’ name to perform a miraculous healing. 2. Acts 3:7-8 "Taking him by the right hand, he helped him up, and instantly the man’s feet and ankles became strong. He jumped to his feet and began to walk. Then he went with them into the temple courts, walking and jumping, and praising God." The healing of the paralytic not only restored his physical health but also led him to worship and praise God, demonstrating the transformative power of faith and God’s miraculous intervention. Scriptures Supporting the Lesson’s Themes 1. John 14:13-14 "And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it." This verse reinforces the authority believers have in the name of Jesus, as demonstrated by Peter and John when they healed the paralytic. 2. Mark 16:17-18 "And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well." The healing at the Beautiful Gate is an example of the signs and wonders that follow those who believe in Jesus and act in His name. 3. James 5:14-15 "Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise them up." This passage highlights the role of faith and prayer in healing, as seen in the actions of Peter and John. Reflection on the Sunday Lesson Pastor Amin Gill’s focus on Acts Chapter 3 is a powerful reminder of the early church’s reliance on the name of Jesus for miracles and ministry. The story of the paralytic at the Beautiful Gate encourages believers to: Exercise Faith: Trust in the power of Jesus’ name to bring healing and transformation. Share God’s Power: Like Peter and John, believers are called to share the hope and power of Christ with those in need. Glorify God: The healed man’s response of walking, leaping, and praising God reminds us to always give glory to the Lord for His works. Encouragement for the Church in Pakistan The story of Acts Chapter 3 is especially relevant for the church in Pakistan, where believers often face challenges but continue to stand firm in faith. The miraculous healing at the Beautiful Gate demonstrates that God’s power is not limited by circumstances or location. Additional Scripture for Encouragement Isaiah 40:31: "But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint." This verse encourages the church to remain steadfast and trust in God’s strength. Pastor Amin Gill’s Sunday lesson on Acts Chapter 3 serves as a powerful reminder of the authority believers have in the name of Jesus Christ. The healing of the paralytic at the Beautiful Gate inspires faith, boldness, and a commitment to glorify God in all circumstances. Let us continue to pray for Pastor Amin, the Jehovah Saints Church in Pakistan, and their mission to bring hope and healing to their community through the power of Christ.

- Report: Growth of Jehovah Saints in South Sudan
Report: Growth of Jehovah Saints in South Sudan President Daniel Deng Bol Tong's Leadership and Expansion of Jehovah Saints Churches President Daniel Deng Bol Tong of Jehovah Saints in South Sudan recently shared a photo of the headquarters and church building, symbolizing the growing presence of Jehovah Saints in the region. Under his leadership, the ministry has established a total of seven churches across South Sudan, a remarkable achievement within just one year of his service with Jehovah Saints. This growth reflects the fulfillment of the Great Commission and the power of unity in Christ to expand the Kingdom of God, even in challenging regions. Key Scriptures Supporting the Mission 1. Matthew 28:19-20 "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." President Daniel’s work in establishing seven churches aligns with Jesus’ command to make disciples of all nations. His dedication to spreading the Gospel and building the church demonstrates obedience to this divine mandate. 2. Isaiah 54:2-3 "Enlarge the place of your tent, stretch your tent curtains wide, do not hold back; lengthen your cords, strengthen your stakes. For you will spread out to the right and to the left; your descendants will dispossess nations and settle in their desolate cities." The expansion of Jehovah Saints in South Sudan is a testament to God’s promise of growth and multiplication. The establishment of seven churches signifies the stretching of spiritual “tent curtains” to reach more people with the message of hope and salvation. 3. Acts 2:47 "And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved." The rapid growth of Jehovah Saints churches in South Sudan reflects God’s hand at work in adding to the church. President Daniel’s leadership and the dedication of the South Sudanese believers have created fertile ground for spiritual revival. Reflection on President Daniel’s Leadership President Daniel Deng Bol Tong’s commitment to Jehovah Saints over the past year has been instrumental in spreading the Gospel in South Sudan. His efforts to lead and guide seven churches showcase his dedication to serving God and his community. Additional Scripture for Encouragement 1 Corinthians 3:6-7: "I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God has been making it grow. So neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God, who makes things grow." This reminds us that while President Daniel and his team have worked hard to plant and water the seeds of faith, it is God who has brought the increase. The photo of the headquarters and the seven churches under President Daniel’s leadership is a powerful symbol of the growth of Jehovah Saints in South Sudan. This work is a fulfillment of God’s promises in Scripture and a testament to the faithfulness of His servants. Let us continue to pray for President Daniel, the seven churches, and the people of South Sudan, that they may experience continued growth, unity, and spiritual revival.
- Opening the Way for Jehovah Saints to Build Homeless Shelters and Restore Morality
Opening the Way for Jehovah Saints to Build Homeless Shelters and Restore Morality Pastor Macokebe of Jehovah Saints Church of Tanzania shared an inspiring report about his fruitful discussions with bishops and pastors from various churches. The focus of their conversations was on how to open the way for Jehovah Saints to establish homeless shelters, restore the morality and dignity of the homeless, and involve volunteers to reach and identify those in need. This mission aligns with the biblical call to care for the vulnerable and prepare the way for the Lord’s work. Pastor Macokebe drew inspiration from John the Baptist’s mission and the Scriptures that highlight the importance of preparing the way for God’s purposes. Key Scriptures Discussed 1. Isaiah 40:3-4 "A voice of one calling: ‘In the wilderness prepare the way for the Lord; make straight in the desert a highway for our God. Every valley shall be raised up, every mountain and hill made low; the rough ground shall become level, the rugged places a plain.’" This Scripture served as a foundation for the discussion. Just as John the Baptist prepared the way for Jesus, the church is called to prepare the way for God’s work by addressing the needs of the homeless. The valleys of despair and the mountains of obstacles can be leveled through faith, collaboration, and action. Reflection: The act of building homeless shelters is a modern-day example of preparing the way for the Lord. By addressing the physical and moral needs of the homeless, the church creates a pathway for them to encounter God’s love and grace. 2. John 1:23 "John replied in the words of Isaiah the prophet, ‘I am the voice of one calling in the wilderness, “Make straight the way for the Lord.”’" Pastor Macokebe emphasized how John the Baptist’s mission was to prepare the way for Christ by calling people to repentance and renewal. Similarly, the church’s mission is to prepare the way for spiritual and moral restoration by reaching out to the homeless and marginalized. Reflection: The church must act as a voice in the wilderness of society, calling people to hope, restoration, and transformation. This mission is not just about providing shelter but also about building up the moral and spiritual lives of those in need. Key Points from the Discussion Building Homeless Shelters The physical act of building shelters is a direct response to Jesus’ teaching in Matthew 25:35-36: "For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me." By creating a safe space for the homeless, the church fulfills its mandate to care for the least of these. Restoring Morality and Dignity The goal is not just to provide shelter but to restore the moral and spiritual dignity of the homeless. Proverbs 22:2 reminds us of the equality of all people before God: "Rich and poor have this in common: The Lord is the Maker of them all." Every individual, regardless of their current circumstances, has inherent value and can be restored through God’s grace. Volunteering and Reaching the Homeless Volunteers play a critical role in identifying and reaching the homeless where they are. Galatians 6:9-10 encourages believers to persevere in doing good: "Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers." The church must mobilize volunteers to serve as the hands and feet of Jesus in the community. Call to Action 1. Collaborate Across Churches Unity among churches is essential for this mission. Psalm 133:1 reminds us: "How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in unity!" By working together, churches can pool resources, share ideas, and make a greater impact. 2. Pray for Guidance and Provision The success of this mission depends on God’s guidance and provision. Philippians 4:19 assures us: "And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus." Prayer must be the foundation of every effort. 3. Engage the Community Involve the local community in supporting the homeless shelters. Hebrews 13:16 encourages us: "And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased." Pastor Macokebe’s report highlights the church’s vital role in addressing homelessness and moral restoration. By following the example of John the Baptist and preparing the way for God’s work, the church can transform lives and glorify God. Let us commit ourselves to this mission, trusting that God will use our efforts to bring hope, healing, and salvation to those in need. Closing Prayer Heavenly Father, we thank You for the opportunity to serve as Your hands and feet in this world. Help us to prepare the way for Your work by caring for the homeless and restoring their dignity. Unite Your church in this mission, and provide the resources and wisdom needed to accomplish it. May our efforts bring glory to Your name and draw many to Your kingdom. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

- A Call to Serve: Supporting the Poor in Pakistan
A Call to Serve: Supporting the Poor in Pakistan Request by Pastor Jamil Masih of Jehovah Saints Pakistan The Mission in Pakistan Pastor Jamil Masih is leading an initiative to serve the poor and vulnerable in Pakistan by distributing food packages to those in need. This act of love is a reflection of God’s command to care for the hungry and needy. A Request for Support Pastor Jamil humbly requests contributions to support this mission: "Please contribute wherever God leads you and puts it in your heart. Together, we can bring hope and relief to the poor." Biblical Inspiration for Feeding the Hungry 1. God’s Call to Help the Poor The Bible consistently calls us to care for the poor and meet their needs: Proverbs 22:9: “The generous will themselves be blessed, for they share their food with the poor.” Matthew 25:35: “For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in.” When we feed the hungry, we are serving Christ Himself. 2. Giving with a Cheerful Heart God blesses those who give generously and joyfully: 2 Corinthians 9:7: “Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.” Luke 6:38: “Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.” By contributing to this mission, you are participating in God’s work and sharing His blessings. 3. Trusting God’s Provision Even in times of scarcity, God provides for His people and multiplies what is given in faith: Philippians 4:19: “And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of His glory in Christ Jesus.” John 6:11-13: “Jesus then took the loaves, gave thanks, and distributed to those who were seated as much as they wanted. He did the same with the fish. When they had all had enough to eat, He said to His disciples, ‘Gather the pieces that are left over. Let nothing be wasted.’” Your contribution, no matter how small, can be multiplied by God to bless many. Let us come together to support Pastor Jamil Masih in his mission to feed the poor in Pakistan. Your generosity can bring hope and sustenance to those in need. Key Message: "When we serve the poor, we serve Christ. Let us give with love and faith, trusting in God’s abundant provision."
