Pastor's Welcome

The grace of God, made personal

Greetings in the wonderful name of Jesus!

Whether you came looking for us or simply stumbled across this page, you are most welcome to Hanamel Gospel Ministries, where we are transformed by grace and compassion.

Hanamel is a Hebrew name meaning "the grace of God"; it was also the name of the prophet Jeremiah's cousin (Jeremiah 32:8). Some years ago, as I prayed and studied the Word, the Spirit of God ministered to me from Acts 20:24: "…to testify to the gospel of the grace of God" (NKJV). Over a year later, again in prayer, the name Hanamel Gospel Ministries was conceived. That verse remains the heart of our mission.

May you find here inspiration, encouragement and spiritual growth as we allow the LORD to minister through us to you. Better still, come and worship with us, or join one of our Home Fellowships. We would love to meet you

Thank you for stopping by, and keep coming back!

HEAVEN IS COUNTING ON US

At times it takes deep meditation to come to grips with the power and weight of the words the Lord Jesus spoke. Aware that He spoke only what God the Father commanded and authorized (John 12:49), and that the words Christ spoke are spirit and life (John 6:63), we can be certain that nothing Christ said was loose or merely for the sake of speaking. We would do well to meditate carefully on them. Take, for example, Christ's words to His followers (in our reference text): "You are the salt of the earth..." Hallelujah! Those words certainly bring to mind several truths implied therein. First, the earth (its people and the systems of this world) is in dire need of preservation.
