Shalom

I am Patrick, presently 67 and married.

We are at a sweet spot in our working lives. We are working with most of our children in our bakery. Joyful times.

My spiritual walk started when I questioned the catholic teachings.

Either out of rebellion or a deeper desire that I didn’t understand. I just knew that there is a better way.

Up until a certain scuba diving experience, I didn’t care if I lived or not. With a near drowning experience, I came to the surface and shouted “thank God I am alive” i heard those words echo back to me. That changed my life. Then I became a seeker.

Four years later after I was married, my wife and became “born again”  in an evangelical church. We experienced several spiritual teaching in the various churches we attended. None had that deep teaching we wanted.

Many years later I was introduced to some Messianic teachings. Perhaps I was stuck in the church, but I attempted to slowly seek out that kind of teaching.

When we were living in Pennsylvania, I was able to attend Beth Yeshua in Philadelphia and one in Lititz. There I found the teaching that mostly fed my soul.

I do know that in this life, we will never know the depth of  Yehovah
