Word pictures, recaps & updates ! pics below

Hello to all who bear with our long absences from this blog site! Many things have transpired since our last update, Spring indeed is a busy time!
We attended the 2nd annual "Family Week " campout at Ken Lake, Kentucky for 10 days. There we participated in a wedding, Pesach(Passover) and fellowship for the week of Unleavened Bread.
Now when I tell you that the wedding of Brayden Waller & Talitha Lupinacci was beautiful and really special, not ordinary in the least as far as 99% of weddings go, you need to believe me. In the times we are living in it was unique and something that should catch the attention of every Believer. No, there was not a sky diving exchange of vows or anything like that. Nor was it beautiful because of the park like setting with the sparkling waters of the lake in the background. None of the scenery, nor the attire of the lovely attendants made it beautiful. (Although they were!) I can honestly say that it was the most beautiful wedding we've ever been to up to this day. Why? Much prayer and leading of the Holy Spirit went into presenting to everyone a spiritual, emotional and visual picture of what every true Believer on earth Longs for...
The Return of our Saviour, our Heavenly Bride Groom, Yeshua Messiah, Jesus Christ!!!
"For the Lord Himself shall descend from Heaven with a SHOUT, with the voice of the Archangel, and with the trump (Shofar) of God and the dead in Messiah shall rise first, then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words." 1Thess 4:16-18
The wedding was not just the acting out of an earthly marriage between man & woman, but a very exciting glimpse of how it will be when our Heavenly Groom comes for us. Yes, we are excited and longing for that day but, have you ever considered how excited and passionate about that Day, Father God is about sending His Son to get us?
"Let us be glad and rejoice and give honour to Him, for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and His wife hath made herself ready."Rev.19:7
Are we as the Bride of Messiah(Christ) making each other and ourselves ready? Father God takes His Covenant seriously, for He is a jealous God. On one hand He desires intimacy with us, he is a God committed in marriage to us by His rights as Husband. On the other hand when we violate Him through types of spiritual adultery, we may indeed face His jealous wrath! He is returning for a spotless and Holy Bride! Hallelujah!!!!!

There you will read about the events that led up to this union, 2 young people dedicated to God who sought the Father to orchestrate and choose their lifemates for them, the betrothal, the waiting time, wedding and marriage feast. Let's focus on our Bridegroom and watch for His coming!

The Family Week campout was a great time for all in our family,#1 we enjoy camping, #2 we love the fellowship of the saints,#3 we all rejoice in celebrating the Biblical Feasts of Passover and Unleavened Bread!
We were situated for the week in a new family size tent that a sweet family bought for us, high on a bank overlooking a large expanse of Kentucky Lake. Waterfront Property! Little did we know at that time of year it turned out to be the coldest and windiest spot in the whole campground! In spite of freezing temps. some mornings and lots of rain we did have a great time. There were loads of classes and workshops, community meals, concerts, activities and campsite fellowship. We also had plenty of opportunity to dance, pray , sing and worship together with folks from British Columbia to Alabama and points in between. It is always such a unique opportunity to live temporarily in a close community setting with so many like minded families. Many desire a move to live in community daily, more self-sufficient type lifestyles. Others are working hard to get debt free and still others are seeking the Father about working for the kingdom in missions.

The Home Scene
Winter is behind us, Spring is here and Summer is soon upon us, my how time FLIES! The large garden is almost all planted, its all in there, too many vegetable varieties to list and compared to other years it seems bigger, makes more sense the way our world is going! Even if I only had a 3ftx2ft plot or a couple of tubs I'd plant something to eat! organically.
We've had many visitors stop in since Family Week and now we are actually helping one family from Wisconsin move into a neighboring farm 2 miles away. We are also going over to Lesley's mom's place to get things ready for her arrival, with the hopes that she gets here before the summer heat sets in.

The Boat Scene
We have been seriously seeking the Lord on the situation with the boat. The timing has not come yet to get aboard "Saved By Grace" to move her or do anything with her. We've got Lesley's mom, a couple we fellowship with are due to have their 4th baby, we help with delivery and whatever, and the Schimp Family are moving in. Meanwhile, Frank is very aware of the deteriorating effects the elements have on a lonely wooden boat. So with counsel he is praying about different avenues to use the boat, until the Father sees fit to put us aboard. These details will have to be worked out, we do invite you to pray with us about this situation.
Signing off
Again many thanks to all who stay in touch with us, by phone, Frank's preferred method!
by letter, Lesley's preferred method! and by E-mail, the girl's preferred method!
Shalom from our home to yours,
The Mullen's Seven for Him
