UONYC Announces New Position of Traveling Shepherd
On the second point, the Board of Rabbis of the UONYC is most pleased to
announce that our good chaver/friend
Rabbi Rob Miller of Agudat Bris in
Temple Texas has been appointed as our new "traveling shepherd." What
that means is that if you and your group or congregation need a UONYC
representative to come and offer needed, instruction, guidance, counsel,
admonition, exhortation, or just plain old "trouble shooting" he is
available! Perhaps your people need to see a real face to the UONYC, or
maybe you and your wife are a little discouraged and doubting your
calling, or gifting at a crucial time in your ministry! Well that's why
we can now offer to send our traveling shepherd to you to eyeball the
situation, and see how the UONYC can be of help! We believe that this
wonderful appointment will show the care that Yahshua has for those
leaders He has called to be in the vineyard. We are going steps beyond
other organizations in making this opportunity available to you and your
UONYC group!
It is our desire to be a real and caring community to you and your staff
in times of trials and needs. If you become depressed or discouraged we
want to be there in your city and community helping you through the
situation in Yahshua's love and care as best as we can humanly be! From
the outset our UONYC has been geared to healing and instructing
shepherds of Yisrael, believing that YHWH's authority flows down Aaron's
beard into the local kehilla. It is towards that end that we have
authorized Rabbi Miller to represent the UONYC Board of Rabbis as he
embarks on his role to provide better spiritual care and concern for our
leaders, believing that healthy leadership makes for healthier
congregations. Feel free to e mail Rabbi Rob at his new UONYC e mail
address at
union5@2house.org or
call him at: 254-770-1167 or 254-773-0703. If you'd prefer you can call
the UONYC office at 1-305-UNION-07 and request Rabbi Rob to contact you.
The traveling shepherd is an ambassador of the UONYC and as such will
not engage you in any lashon hara/evil speaking against the board, or
the UONYC. If you are calling to sit him down and issue a laundry list
of complaints, don't waste yours, or his time. He has been instructed to
pick up and leave if that situation occurs! Rabbi Rob also will not
represent his doctrine, but only that of the UONYC beliefs posted at :
Rabbi Rob will be accountable to the Board of Rabbis and will issue
periodic written and or verbal reports to update us on his travels.
We believe this is a major step towards putting a caring touch to an
effective and caring growing community of Nazarene Yisraelites from
around the globe! We are sure you agree and will receive the benefits
from this appointment starting immediately. All we ask is that should
you desire our traveling shepherd to meet with you and or your assembly
in person, that you provide the necessary expenses to get him to you and
back. Hardship cases where the local assembly cannot provide his
traveling funds, will be assessed by the UONYC on an individual request
basis and some FEW exceptions may be made where the UONYC will pay for
his expenses. Once there we ask you as the leader to take up a special
offering or two, as a gift to this man who is sacrificing his life on
the altar of your service. Shalom.
Shalom,
Board of Rabbis
UONYC
