Yahweh then worked a miracle for His faithful children and the prices came down, (even to levels in places that were lower than last year)!!

Meyer stressed in his inception lecture the need to stay focused on the purpose and description of an Obadiah; to gain a strong Biblical education and be able to defend the Faith Yahweh has given us.

02 August, 2008-The New Moon of the fifth month (Av) has been sighted and reported to Bethel and sanctified by Elder Jacob O. Meyer with the blowing of the Shofar.

8 July, 2008-An expanded outlet has been provided for the Assemblies of Yahweh. While listening to the simulcast of WMLK on the Streaming System the program manager for KAAY, Little Rock Arkansas came to the conclusion that the world needs to hear more of this expanded-message format. He was able to open up a programming slot on Sabbath morning between 3AM and 5AM to accommodate this increased broadcast time beginning July 12.

16 May, 2008-Appearing in the Reading Eagle newspaper this week, (the same paper that published the extensive article during the Feast of Tabernacles two years ago) was an article about the ministry of Yisrayl Hawkins in Texas.

The visibility this month was exceptional as it's illumination and elevation enabled the entire congregation in Bethel to see it.

20 April, 2008-We are happy to report that the Passover Memorial service last evening was an inspiration to all in attendance. As we reconfirmed our vows with Yahweh in Yahshua, our determination to continue on to His kingdom was strengthened. Here in Bethel, there were two individuals who stepped forward with a will to be immersed into Yahshua's Name. Reports of similar convocations being held by congregations of the Assemblies of Yahweh are pouring in. Let us go forward in love and unity with zeal as we look for Yahshua's imminent return.
16 April, 2008-Today has a special spiritual meaning to Yahweh's children. In ancient Israel the 10th of Abib was the day Yahweh commanded the Passover lamb to be chosen which would be sacrificed on the 14th Day of Abib.

21 March, 2008-Special Note: Now that the Live Stream site has been reworked it will be necessary for all the Stream members to log into the sub web and re-register.

20 March, 2008-Elder Jacob O. Meyer has requested that we thank all those who have sent cards, notes of encouragement and flowers and are continuing to pray for Head Deaconess Ruth F.

12 March, 2008-Special Note: The Live Stream Membership section has been totally reworked.

11 March, 2008-The Sacred Name Telecast program is now available on the Direct TV Satellite network, airing on channel 323, (Uplift TV) at 9:30 AM ET Sunday.

Drive carefully and Yahweh Bless you on this beautiful winter's Sabbath day.
15 February, 2008-The Assemblies of Yahweh is experiencing a period of great progress as Yahshua continues to lead Yahweh's Assembly. Since the Feast of Tabernacles, when His Assembly came together in great unity, many doors have opened and Elder Jacob O. Meyer has led onward. In direct correlation to this progress though are the attacks of Satan. He has personally attacked Elder Jacob O. Meyer and Sister Meyer along with many of the brethren around the world but with the hope of Yahweh's kingdom in our hearts, we are moving forward, Praise Yahweh! We have uploaded a gallery displaying some of the great things that have taken place here in Bethel and we hope that you rejoice with us in praising Yahweh's power. See them now!
15 February, 2008-There is great news in the offing concerning the Sacred Name Telecast! When Elder Jacob O. Meyer finalizes the plans we will make an announcement of this wonderful development. Keep checking back often!
13 February, 2008-It has become necessary to make a clear division between the Assemblies of Yahweh and impostors who happen to use the Name of Yahweh. Over 25 years ago, Buffalo Bill Hawkins, now called Yisrayl, attended a regional Bible conference in Texas hosted by Elder Jacob O. Meyer. (He was jailed this week on bigamy charges). Upon realizing severe differences in doctrine and a covert attempt to fish for names and addresses from individuals who were attending, Elder Jacob O. Meyer asked him to leave the meeting. The House Of Yahweh has been proven to espouse non-Biblical doctrines, one of which is bigamy, and has no affiliation with the Assemblies of Yahweh. "Let everyone that names the Name of Yahweh depart from unrighteousness". 2 Timothy 2:19.
10 February, 2008-We are pleased to report the the new issue of the Sacred Name Broadcaster was published this past week, printed entirely on Heidelberg presses.

Have a wonderful Sabbath and a great month!
8 February, 2008-We would like to express thanks for the outpouring of cards and flowers that have been sent to Sister Meyer as she regains her health. It is a wonderful display which speaks to the impact that she has had on so many lives around the world. Gallery.
7 February, 2008-Special Note: There was a glitch in the export of the "Specter of the Coming Beast System part 4". The message has been reworked and uploaded, ready for download.

31 January, 2008-Last Sabbath Elder Jacob O. Meyer requested special prayer from the Bethel Assembly and those attending services via. the Streaming system for Head Deaconess Ruth Meyer, his wife of over 55 years and a faithful servant of Yahweh. Sister Meyer's procedure was a success although there were some complications after the surgery for which she is receiving medical treatment to resolve. Elder Meyer requests that the brotherhood continues to pray for her speedy recovery.
14 January, 2008-We have uploaded pictures of the Pennsylvania State Farm Show last week. A field trip for Dalet School is scheduled each year as we remind ourselves of the passage in Ecclesiastes 5:9 that "Even the king is served by the field". See them Now!
9 January, 2008-The Assemblies of Yahweh received religious persecution today in the form of vandalism to the headquarters. The sign at the north entrance was attacked by an unknown assailant using a golf club and their feet. Even though, Praise Yahweh! the sign received some damage, because of the repairs last summer it stood up to the beating. See pictures of the damage. The Police are investigating and due to the evidence left at the scene are confident they will be able to capture the one (or ones) who did this. This event reminds us that we are living in troubled times and our Faith must stand firm against Satan's attacks.
9 January, 2008-The New Moon of the 11th scriptural month has been sighted. More to follow!
8 January, 2008-Each year Elder Jacob O. Meyer has closed the office for a day during the Pennsylvania State Farm Show in January. The emphasis in America it seems has been changed from an agrarian society to a service-oriented lifestyle. By giving the Dalet School children a field trip to this event it reorients us into the thought-process that food takes work which must be done in order to survive. Therefore, the offices at the headquarters will be closed today so that parents can accompany their children to this annual event. We plan to meet again (as in other years) in section 17 of the Main Arena. See you there!
31 December, 2007-There will be a volunteer day tomorrow in Bethel. Many jobs have been scheduled so each individual that donates their time is greatly appreciated. Be here for morning devotions at 8 AM in the main office building and then at noon there will be a meal provided for all who serve.
28 December, 2007-During the pagan solstice holidays the Assemblies of Yahweh membership make a distinction and volunteer in Yahweh's service. As we work for Him, our zeal and dedication is renewed and we are quick to rejoice that Yahweh did not leave us in the world but are part of the remnant who are called out. The Assemblies of Yahweh administration gives sincere thanks to the individuals who sacrificed so willingly to serve Yahweh and help to further His ministry. Picture Gallery of the Day.
27 December, 2007-There will be a fellowship meal in Bethel following the Sabbath morning service, December 29. We look forward to this time we can spend with brethren, away from the world. Following the meal there will be a Bible Study, which will be Live Streamed. (HBD.)
14 December, 2007-Elder Jacob O. Meyer has been petitioning Yahweh for a few months concerning the Assemblies of Yahweh printing department. With the amount of printed material the Assemblies of Yahweh produces, the equipment has shown the stress. Yahweh has provided an answer to prayer! A Heidelberg press has been purchased, placed in the print shop and hooked up-ready for service. We thank Yahweh as He continues to lead and provide for His Assembly. HalleluYah!! See pictures of this progress.
14 December, 2007-The ice storm that caused so much trouble in the mid-west has covered Pennsylvania with a layer of ice. We continue to pray for the brethren that Yahweh will keep all His children safe as this winter moves on. See the pictures of this progress.
14 December, 2007-The Sacred Name Telecast studio is back up and running after a complete upgrade. After the Feast of Tabernacles Yahweh provided the equipment that will allow us to be HDTV compliant when the United States mandate becomes mandatory in 2009. This upgrade also allows us to Close Caption, in-house. See the pictures of this progress.
14 December, 2007-For many years there have been hundreds of books in the Assemblies of Yahweh library that have been impossible to display because of a lack of shelf-space. Plans are being made for an expansion that will include room for an expanded Obadiah School library. There has also been a severe need for more office space in the headquarters as Yahweh's ministry grows. Remodeling is well under way which will address this expansion. See the pictures of this progress.
10 December, 2007-The New Moon of the 10th month has been sighted and consecrated. Let us continue to work as we prepare for Yahshua's imminent return!

24 November, 2007-There is a fellowship meal scheduled after services today. Elder Jacob O. Meyer discovered many years ago that during the worldly holidays many individuals have extra time off and make the trek to Bethel to visit. Today is no exception and there are a number of visitors that have planned to gather together this Sabbath. Following the meal there will be a Bible Study and for out children, Junior Congregation. It is a wonderful event, enjoyed by all, each time we are able to get together with the brethren.
23 November, 2007-Sermon Download Note: The new video-editing system is up and running.

There are so many pictures that we must share with everyone that these galleries will continue to expand, Yahweh Willing. See Them Now!
2 November, 2007-A wonderful event occurred this morning at 5:05 a.m. A daughter was born to Beth and Quimby Oxenreider, local members here in the Bethel Assembly.

This year is no exception as we are experiencing a cleansing rain here in central Pennsylvania. The weather is causing major variations with our Internet. To those Assemblies in foreign lands and are on the Live Audio-Video Stream and those on the Tabernacle Webcam, keep refreshing when it locks up, because we are on...at the moment.
26 September, 2007-The Feast of Tabernacles is Here!! The Assemblies of Yahweh in Bethel Pennsylvania will once again be offering a live webcam from inside Yahweh's Tabernacle. Click here to view the great events happening at Bethel!
21 September, 2007-The Sabbatical year, the Year of Release, begins this evening at sundown. During this time Yahweh has commanded His children to rely on Him and refrain from partaking of anything cultivated during the next year. Yahweh has once again separated the Assemblies of Yahweh from all of this world's religions. They have with one voice, "Began to make excuse", fabricating a list reasons why they can't serve Yahweh. Sadly, they will miss out this great blessing that Yahweh has promised in Leviticus 25. Being "Called by the Name of Yahweh" does not give us the option of cherry-picking the laws we wish to observe. During each Sabbatical (Shemitah) year we add to our spiritual foundation and grow, refusing to backslide into the ways of the world, but going forward as Elder Meyer instructs us to follow Yahshua, "On To The Kingdom"!
20 September, 2007-Note: During the Fast of Atonement all the Assemblies of Yahweh services will be both audio and video Streamed for those who have joined the Live Streaming system.

We thank Yahweh for this opportunity to unite with the membership around the world in our worship to Yahweh.
19 September, 2007-When the sun sets on the evening of September 21, we will enter a time of close communion with out Father in heaven. During the Fast of Atonement (Yom Kippur) we are commanded by Yahweh to afflict our souls, to not ingest anything into our physical bodies for 24 hours. As we obey this commandment, the emphasis is placed on our Spiritual lives and our relationship with Yahweh and Yahshua our Messiah.
17 September, 2007-We are pleased to report that during the recent Feast of Trumpets the Assemblies of Yahweh observed, a new level of zeal and dedication was reached. With Yahweh's children around the world in total unity, this Feast of Joy and Thanksgiving enabled us to hear, and then act on, Yahweh's will. During this annual Feast day, Elder Jacob O. Meyer sounded the shofar (ram's horn) at each service. This audible signal motivates Yahweh's children to move forward and enter the "Days of Awe" with renewed dedication and a willingness to serve our creator.
12 September, 2007-The New Moon of the 7th Month was sighted! This makes all the dates projected by the Assemblies of Yahweh stand as correct. May Yahweh Bless His people as we worship Him on His commanded annual Sabbath. New Moon Page

moved here from Trinidad and works in the offices specializing in desk-top
publication. They will be making their home in
to see the happy couple.

29 May, 2007-All of the representatives have returned from their assignments to Bethel from organizing the Feast of Weeks services last weekend, Praise Yahweh! The reports of a wonderfully Spiritual Feast season are pouring in. We pray that during this, the second of three pilgrim Feasts, that Yahweh's Law has been reconfirmed on the "Tablets of our Hearts" Proverbs 3:3.
24 May, 2007-Elder Jacob O. Meyer has requested that we address a vicious rumor that went around last week. Last Wednesday morning his family doctor suggested that he go to the hospital because of a flu that he was dealing with. Because of a hospital employee who breached the 1997 Medical Information Privacy Laws, (we have been counseled not to comment further until the hospital's review and investigation has been completed) the public was given a raft of half-truths and falsehoods. Elder Meyer is delighted to announce that he is in good shape and was released from medical care before last Sabbath. He was diagnosed with an upper-respiratory infection that was addressed with a course of antibiotics. During this time of the year with the changes in weather many of the children in the congregation, including his grandchildren and great-grandchildren, contract colds and such which they "share" when they hug Elder and Sister Meyer. Over the past 40 years of the Ministry they have come to expect this. Praise Yahweh He has answered prayers and worked in such a miraculous way. Sadly though it seems that some in the Sacred Name Churches thrive on tidbits of gossip and this story ran like wild-fire around the world. We bring to mind the Bible's teaching on misuse of the tongue. Our opinion is that the time wasted on gossip would have been better-spent getting ready Spiritually to approach the throne of Yahweh at the Feast of Weeks. Shalom!!
24 May, 2007-The Feast of Weeks convocation preparation is almost complete. We have been counting for 47 days and on the 49th day we are commanded to appear before Yahweh. Once again, Elder Jacob O. Meyer has, and is, sending representatives around the world to organize these Feast observances. If you need more information on attending one of these services call 717-933-4518.
24 May, 2007-Great News! The first copies of the book, "Israel's Tabernacle in the Wilderness" arrived today. Elder Meyer has requested that all families receive a copy at the Feast of Weeks convocations. Please see the local representatives who are in your area for this special gift. Praise Yahweh for this opportunity to spread Yahweh's Truth via the printed page.
21 May, 2007-The Bethel Pennsylvania area is a beautiful place to live. Someone once described the Assemblies of Yahweh property as "A jewel in a case" and this year is no exception. In this environment Elder Jacob O. Meyer has raised a large garden almost every year since he was a child. This year, the preparation-year for the Sabbatical, Elder and Sister Meyer are raising more vegetables than ever which will help to provide for the Meyer families and also some of the Brethren who live in the area. Because of Elder Meyer's insistence on being a "good steward" to Yahweh's land, his garden is raised organically with only natural fertilizers and is generally worked with only mule and horse power. See pictures of his ongoing project.
19 May, 2007-On this beautiful Sabbath in Bethel, Elder Jacob O. Meyer's sermon topic is: Growing Toward the Harvest Goal. This sermon will be available for download and on cassette early next week. Although we offer Elder Meyer's messages on CD, they are in Mp3 format. Generally they don't fit on a standard CD. Praise Yahweh for the Blessings that are flowing from the throne.

7 May, 2007-After the long winter many repairs had to be done around the Assemblies of Yahweh property in Bethel Pa. One of these repairs was to the sign located at the entrance leading to Yahweh's Tabernacle. During the repair we discovered that the materials and building-practices of the individual who initially installed it were severely lacking. What a powerful lesson can be learned from this example: If we don't make sure that we build our spiritual lives with sound materials and fasten it securely with the strength we receive from Yahweh's Word, when the winds of Satan blow, weaknesses will be exposed and our Faith will be in jeopardy. True Worshipers must continue to learn the lessons that Yahweh and Yahshua are teaching as we approach the End-Times. See the repaired sign now!

26 March, 2007-On Sabbath, March 24, the Assemblies of Yahweh homepage counter crossed the 200,000 mark. When the headquarters finally gained control over assembliesofyahweh.com in 1998 the website was at 24,000, that was after about 4 years of being online. The site now receives contacts from on average over a thousand interested individuals a week. Praise Yahweh as His ministry surges forward. (We are waiting for confirmation from the individual that was the 200,000th visitor, who will receive a Sacred Scriptures Bethel Edition Bible).
25 March, 2007-For many years Sister Ruth Meyer prepared the Unleavened Bread by herself which was used in the Passover memorial service. In recent years as the Assembly grew into an international Ministry and when Yahweh opened-up the opportunity to set-up facilities at the Assemblies of Yahweh to prepare food, Elder Jacob O. Meyer has scheduled a volunteer day to prepare the Matzoth and the campus for the upcoming holy Convocation. This year over 25 individuals volunteered this morning and came out to help make the necessary preparations. Click to see the picture page.

19 March, 2007-The New Moon of the 1st month, Abib, was sighted in Haiti by over 20 individuals and reported to Bethel. Praise Yahweh for revealing His seasons to His Assembly!

19 March, 2007-We enjoyed a lovely fellowship meal in Bethel as we anticipated the sighting of the Abib New Moon.
