CELEBRANT: The Lord be with you.
PEOPLE: “AND ALSO WITH YOU”

CELEBRANT: Lift up your hearts.
PEOPLE: “WE LIFT THEM TO THE LORD”

CELEBRANT: Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
PEOPLE: “IT IS RIGHT TO GIVE HIM THANKS AND PRAISE”

It is truly right to glorify You, Father, and to give You thanks. For You are face to face with the Son in the
Spirit, Eternal Life, dwelling together in the divine dance of holy unity, from before time and forever.
Fountain of Life, source of all goodness, You made all things in the Son, and in Him all things hold
together and are filled with Your blessing. You created them to rejoice in the splendor and brilliance of
Your kind intention. Countless throngs of angels stand before You to serve You night and day, joining with
them, as a Kingdom of Priests, representing and giving voice on behalf of all creation, we acclaim You
and glorify Your name as we say:

CELEBRANT AND PEOPLE: “TO HIM WHO SITS ON THE THRONE AND TO THE LAMB BE
BLESSING AND HONOR AND GLORY AND DOMINION FOREVER AND EVER. AMEN.”

We acclaim You Holy Lord, The Three in One, glorious in love. Your goodness and kindness reveal that
You are endlessly and unalterably for us. You formed us in Your own image, giving the whole world into
our care, so that in fellowship with You, our Father, we might rule and serve all Your creatures.

When we were plunged into the darkness of the lie, believing that You were not for us, too holy to look at
us, You contradicted the lie, never turning from us, and took sides with us against the accuser, promising
the crushing of his head by the woman’s seed. In Your wrath, the passionate NO! of Your love that
refused our abandonment and destruction, You came into our darkness to seek us until You found us.

Father, You loved the world so much that in the fullness of time, You sent Your only Son, to be our
Savior; not to save us from You, but to take us to You. Incarnate by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin
Mary, He lived as one of us yet without sin. To the poor He proclaimed the Good News of Salvation, to
prisoners, freedom, and to the sorrowful, joy. And to fulfill Your purpose, He gave Himself up to death,
and rising from the grave destroyed death, taking with Him the keys to hell and the grave, raising
humanity to be seated in heavenly places, making the whole creation new.

And exposing the lie that we were unworthy servants under the gaze of Your disapproval, You sent the
promised Holy Spirit, the Blessing of Abraham, the very Spirit of Adoption, who continually intercedes for
us, convincing us that we truly are Your beloved children, by whom we cry “Abba, Daddy”.

When the hour came for Him to be glorified by You, His heavenly Father, having loved His own who were
in the world, He loved them to the end.

At supper with them He took bread. And when He had given thanks to You, He broke it, and gave it to
His disciples and said “Take eat, this is My body, which is given for you. Do this for the remembrance of
Me.”

After supper He took the cup of wine, And when He had given thanks to You, He gave it to them and
said, “Drink this, all of you, this is My blood of the New Covenant, which is shed for you and for many, for
the undoing of sin, whenever you drink it, do this for the remembrance of Me.”
Father, we now celebrate this memorial of our redemption. Recalling Christ’s death and descent among
the dead. Proclaiming His resurrection and ascension to your right hand, and announcing our sharing in
glory: We in Him, He in us, and together in You. And offering to You the gifts You have given us, this
Bread and this Cup, we praise You and we bless You:

CELEBRANT AND PEOPLE: “WE PRAISE YOU, WE BLESS YOU, WE GIVE THANKS TO YOU,
AND WE PRAY TO YOU LORD OUR GOD”

Lord, we thank You that Your Holy Spirit brings all things to our remembrance and reveals that we are
partakers of Your divine nature. We ask that you now sanctify these gifts showing them to be holy gifts
for Your holy people. The Bread of Life, the Cup of our Salvation. The Body and Blood of Your Son,
Jesus Christ.

Grant that all who share this bread and this cup, may become one body and one spirit, a living sacrifice
in Christ, to the praise of Your Name.
Remember, Lord, Your One, Holy, Universal and Apostolic Church, redeemed by the Blood of Christ.
Reveal our unity, guard our faith and preserve us in Your peace.

And grant that we may find our inheritance with patriarchs, prophets, apostles, and martyrs and all Saints
who have found favor with You in all times and places. We praise You in union with them and give You
glory through Your Son Jesus Christ our Lord.

CELEBRANT AND PEOPLE: “THROUGH CHRIST AND WITH CHRIST AND IN CHRIST ALL HONOR
AND GLORY ARE YOURS, ALMIGHTY GOD AND FATHER, IN THE UNITY OF THE HOLY SPIRIT,
FOREVER AND EVER, AMEN.”

THE LORD’S PRAYER

CELEBRANT: Hallelujah! Christ our Passover is sacrificed for us.

CELEBRANT AND PEOPLE: THEREFORE, LET US KEEP THE FEAST! HALLELUJAH!

CELEBRANT: The Gifts of God for the people of God. Take them in remembrance that Christ died for
you by dying as you and feed on Him, this His resurrected, ascended, glorified, death-destroying body,
and do so in your hearts with thanksgiving!

(The Bread and the Cup are given to the communicants with these words)

CELEBRANT: The Body of Christ, the Bread of Heaven. PEOPLE: “AMEN”

CELEBRANT: The Blood of Christ, the Cup of your Salvation. PEOPLE: “AMEN”

CELEBRANT AND PEOPLE: FATHER, ALMIGHTY AND EVER-LIVING GOD, WE THANK YOU FOR
FEEDING US WITH THE SPIRITUAL FOOD OF THE MOST PRECIOUS BODY AND BLOOD OF
YOUR SON, OUR SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST. AND FOR ASSURING US IN THESE HOLY MYSTERIES
THAT WE ARE LIVING MEMBERS OF THE BODY OF YOUR SON AND HEIRS OF YOUR ETERNAL
KINGDOM. AND NOW FATHER, SEND US OUT, TO DO THE WORK YOU HAVE GIVEN US TO DO,
TO LOVE AND SERVE YOU AS FAITHFUL WITNESSES OF CHRIST OUR LORD. TO HIM, TO YOU
AND TO THE HOLY SPIRIT BE HONOR AND GLORY, NOW AND FOREVER, AMEN.

WEBINAR 426 – “Meet Me in Galilee”

Recorded on Sunday April 23, 2023 – Malcolm continues looking at Jesus’ actions in the days after His resurrection and the way he sat and lived, and ate with the disciples – and told them to meet Him the Galilee among the simple, common folk. Jesus spends those 40 days leading them into a new life in the new covenant.

Hello Partners!

Finally we have a partner message for you; it is the first of one each month from now on.

You will find that this is different to partner messages before Covid. Cheryl and I were married a little over a year ago and we share this message together daily. She has her own ministry going into women’s jails with this message of unconditional love. Every morning we sit with our coffee on our sun porch and share – I share my latest message in preparation and she gives her insights. We have decided to invite you to join us on the porch and join the conversation. Here it is and we pray it will be a blessing to you even as it is to us every day.

We want you to know our future plans so that if possible we can meet together have fellowship and share the Word of God. By the time you get this we will have been in Myrtle Beach (June 10-12) for a long weekend of meetings with the church there. When we return we will be in full preparation for Module 5 of the Bible school, where we delve into the meaning of the sufferings, death and resurrection of Jesus. This is the module that we have been moving toward since the beginning of the course. If you have completed Module 4 already, make sure you are registered for this all important weekend. We conduct the Bible school modules in Bandera and stream them live by Zoom, which has enabled us offer them to nearly 200 students covering the world. We are also building an online course as we record each new session, so students can always go back review the content. Modules 1-4 are already available online. If you are interested in the Bible School you may contact Judy for more information – text or call her at (830) 328-3770 – or visit the MSBI information page on our website for more on the Bible school modules.

The annual retreat the first weekend of December is at a new location in San Antonio, Texas this year and our subject will be the life of rest that we have in Christ. Many speak of it but few live it and we look forward to spending the weekend discovering this truth along with fellowship together. Full details can be found below, or on our website at www.unconditionallovefellowship.com/2022retreat/. Cheryl and I look forward to meeting all of you – old friends and new – hearing your story and praying with you.

[Note* We will also be having a big celebration for Malcolm's 70 years in ministry! You don't want to miss this retreat it will be one to remember! - edited in by the team at ULF ]

Through your gifts you and I together are loving people to life.

May the Lord bless you in 2016 with every blessing and favor that is yours in Christ Jesus!

We are making this partner letter and message cover December and January as our experience has been that everyone is caught up in the holidays and are ready for a message in the New Year.

It was a thrilling retreat the first weekend of December. We were full and also filled with the presence and power of the Spirit. Many will remember the weekend as the beginning of a new chapter in their walk with the Lord; many also were touched in their bodies with the healing power of the risen Jesus. It was a joy for us to see so much sharing and ministry taking place among those who were attending the retreat.

We welcome a new member of our team here at Unconditional love office. Her name is Teresa and you will meet her as she will be answering the phones and taking your orders. You will enjoy her spirit of joy in the Lord. She is presently being trained but will be a familiar voice to you all in the days ahead.

As I write this we are preparing for the beginning of a new cycle of the Bible school. It is the largest school we have had and have had to close reservations. This is exciting as in the months to come a new class will step out knowing who they are in Christ rooted in the Scripture.

I cannot give you details at this point but if you are in the area of Baton Rouge, La mark your calendar for the last weekend of April beginning on Friday night and all day Saturday through Sunday. We will be filming a new series to replace and update the Search for Self-Worth that is now over 20 years old. This is not merely a repeat of the subject but pouring it all the Lord has shown me over the decades. The weekend is open to the public and I will give more details as we come closer to the date.

My message to you this month is of vital importance. Facing the world in the chaotic state it is in and the surging darkness of evil persons we must have a clear grasp of where we stand. The psalms are filled with the same challenges that we face today and I have taken one such psalm to show us the peace that is found in believing to see God’s unfailing goodness. May you be blessed in listening to my message.

Let me sincerely thank you for your faithfulness in giving throughout 2015. Your gifts make it possible to speak weekly to many thousands of persons with the word of the limitless love and kindness of our God. Our speaking literally to millions through the radio and the broadcasts through the web are your acts of love and kindness to the world. Thank you for your obedience to the inner voice of the Spirit – know that you were His miracle of love that we were praying for!

Every dollar that you send is the love of God clothed in finances and wrapped in prayer – the gift of your life joined to the Holy Spirit and sent forth to world. You and I, along with every other partner do more together than either of us could do alone in our wildest dreams. In your monthly giving you are part of my voice carrying God’s love in Christ in the power of the Spirit to the world.

The blessing of the Lord be with you all –

Malcolm and Nancy.

Through your gifts you and I together are loving people to life.

My message this month is a long look at the two words which are found throughout the Scripture – “remember” and “forget”. We have made reference to them before but they have been made real and fresh to me in the last days and I want to share them afresh with all of you. They are words used in understanding the covenant that the Lord had with Abraham and Israel and the covenant that we enjoy made in the blood of Jesus. These words are not to be understood in the way we use them in our western world where we understand remembering or forgetting as something that happens to us. In the Scripture they refer to the act of faith whereby we recognize that all God has ever been and promised to us that He is in this moment in the situation that we now find ourselves; “remember” means that we think of our present situation and of ourselves in the light of who God has revealed Himself to be. He is not part of ancient history! He in the fullness of who He is, is present to us and in us in this very moment. Our problem is that we “forget” Him by looking at who He is and what He has done as locked up in history belonging to another time and another people – we then “remember” all our hurt, shame and failure and define our present moment in the light of it. This message can transform your life! There is so much to see in these words that I will be dealing with it in the webinars for the next few weeks – but you have the first and source message.

I am amazed at the number of people we have registering for the retreat – we are already two thirds full and it is only August. If you plan to come make sure you call our office today! We are limited in the number we can fit into the room and it would be a shame if one of our partners would be left outside!
If you are a new partner I am talking about the December retreat. The location is the Drury Inn in San Antonio with easy access to the airport; the date is the first weekend of December beginning Friday night the 4th and concluding on Sunday morning the 6th. I will be teaching the subject, “More than Conquerors” which practically shows how we live a life beyond merely overcoming! This retreat deals with the warfare that we as believers go through every day and practical teaching on how we are continually more than conquerors. This is not about aggressively confronting Satan but a completely different approach! Spiritual warfare by resting! It is a retreat on spiritual warfare as I have never taught it before and I am certain you have never heard it before – and desperately needed in these days.

Pray for me as I prepare for the retreat and also for a series of lectures that I will be giving to students in Bible seminary in Houston Texas, September 19 and 20. These will not only be exciting hours but also carry the weight of shaping the lives of persons influencing them for the rest of their lives – many will become ministers influencing countless others.

We will also be in Baton Rouge in the spring of next year to video tape a new series to replace and update the Search for Self Worth series that is now over 20 years old. This will be open to the public and I will give more details as we come closer to the date.

We give testimony and thanks to God for special offerings sent in the last weeks. Thank you to those who gave! Thank you for your obedience to the inner voice of the Spirit – know that you were His miracle of love that we were praying for! And we thank all of you for your continued giving. Every dollar that you send is the love of God clothed in finances and wrapped in prayer – the gift of your life joined to the Holy Spirit and sent forth to world.

You and I, along with every other partner do more together than either of us could do alone in our wildest dreams. In your monthly giving you are part of my voice carrying God’s love in Christ in the power of the Spirit to the world.

For those of you planning to come and worship with us on Sunday morning we meet during July and August on the last Sunday of the month at 11 a.m.

You may re-watch archived webinars here at: http://www.youtube.com/user/MalcolmSmithWebinars.
