Hello Everyone,
March 29, 2019

It's been a week now since the blog was updated and hopefully you will have a chance, one of these days to check out the content.  The reason I put so much stuff is because I catch myself wasting an hour or more here and there watching golden buzzer videos, animals being rescued or sports highlights on Youtube.  I thought, 'why not provide more than enough content to choose that if people wanted to 'waste'/pass the time, then at least they won't feel guilty after an hour goes by.  They will actually grow closer to God, have a life affirming moment with their technology and feel connected to the work of the ministry at the same time.

A few updates:
1.  Thanks to everyone who gave so generously towards the trip coming up.  I am not in charge of the accounts so I have no idea if we are halfway, all the way or whatever.  Thank you and just as Mother Angelica used to say 'please keep us between your gas bill and your electric bill'!  So if you feel you want to give towards the trip please continue to do so by emailing Christina at g2hchristina@gmail.com.  I know this is like 'beating a dead horse' but, way back a few months ago, we asked the Lord if we could try raising money for the trips from GoFundMe or crowd sourcing.  If you think of it, if roughly 8000 people gave one dollar this trip would be paid.  But God said "no, just send it to those on the email."


2.  HERE'S A NEW OPTION.   There may be some that don't feel comfortable giving towards the trips (for whatever reason or reservation) but maybe they want their donation to go towards the updating of the blog, printing costs, making the books (for example the 'end time' booklet coming out soon), prayer CDs, even purchasing religious articles in bulk to be sold on our blog, and other ways that we can generate ideas for fundraising.  This was also one of the suggestions I received after the appeal for help went out last month.  For example, like in SHARELIFE you can choose if you want your donation to go towards family counselling, pregnant teens,  or the seminary etc.  To be competitive with the lure of the world I am aware that we have to up our game.  I know that we have to upgrade our manner of communicating God's message and although some of the tools we are using to accomplish this are ten year old but we make it work.   I have much of my own equipment from the past (microphone, software, camera, cables etc. ) and we make due but we still lack a few things.  At the moment, we need a sound card so that we can record Rachel and others praying the rosary and maybe we can use this cd to generate support as well.  We also need to upgrade the memory and possibly the video card of the ministry computer;  or else we will not be able to edit videos and update the blog in a manner that will be competitive and attract people to conversion.  The enemy has billions at his disposal to pull them away from God.  All we need is one candle to dispel this vast expanse of darkness we now find ourselves in.  If there is anyone who feels called to contribute towards or 'sponsor' any of these two proposals please contact me (Steve) at gatetoheavenministriesnpo@gmail.com.   All donations however, will still be delivered in the same manner through Christina. 

3.  Since last Friday we have so much new content in the Apologetics/TOOLS, a few videos on the side bar and other little gems spread out here and there.  This last week Rachel had to visit two different homes and both places needed deliverance of demonic activity.  We also had to go driving once and Rachel had to leave the house a few times and this is really hard on her.  Thanks again for the prayers and she really appreciates all manner of support especially the prayer when she has these terrible things attacking her.  Thanks again and God bless you.

Just for some side bar entertainment check this clip from:"the Day After Tomorrow"

click here:   movie clip:
(thank you to those worried about copyright infringement.  I removed the video but all that remains is a link that brings you AWAY from the blog and onto the actual youtube site so we should be fine.  I will look into copyright uses just in case because it will be helpful to have the clips here for educational purposes but we can't take unnecessary risks.  I'll let you know the results...)


This clip is a perfect example of what it's like to be in the ministry.  Often Rachel and sometimes us as well, have to give devastatingly critical messages of eternal life and death significance to friends, family and even strangers; and just like in the movie, most people don't heed it.  In the movie, Sam warns them but at least 80% of them don't listen to the warning, even though he said he had 'inside knowledge' cause his dad was a high ranking climatologist.  And yet they chose to listen to the policeman and all of them perished within a few hours in the storm.

 This is why I say, from what I've learned in the ministry, that obedience is more important than sacrifice, prayer or anything else because obedience shows God true love and devotion.  Especially in this 'apocalyptic' time where many come as deceivers and it is difficult to discern because these false 'prophets' have gifts and knowledge.  I remember coming across a quote from St. Paul of the Cross (founder of the Passionists) and although I paraphrase, basically it said, 'if you gathered 100 'so called' mystics in a room, you could disregard as false, 99 of them'.  He himself was a mystic.

G2H in a nutshell

This is a perfect example of what it's like to be in the ministry.  Often Rachel and sometimes us as well, have to give devastatingly critical messages of eternal life and death significance to friends family and even strangers; and just like in the movie, most people don't heed it.  They purposely doubt or think they can do it another way and in their own manner.  This is why I say, from what I've learned in the ministry, that obedience is more important than sacrifice, prayer or anything else because obedience shows God true love and devotion.  Especially in this 'apocalyptic' time where many come as deceivers and it is difficult to discern because these false 'prophets' have gifts and knowledge.  I remember coming across a quote from St. Paul of the Cross (founder of the Passionists) and although I paraphrase, basically said that 'if you gathered 100 'so called' mystics in a room, you could disregard as false, 99 of them'.  He himself was a mystic.

Hello Everyone,
March 22, 2019!

WELCOME BACK to the UPDATED GATE TO HEAVEN MINISTRY BLOG

What to expect. Well, there will be new updates and messages and videos etc. that will be added as they are ready.  At the present moment, we have been preparing a five message booklet or pdf about the 'End Times' that is next to be released.  We have been working on those five messages for the last month as well as getting a message typed and published on the blog regarding Napoleon's conversion.  This Napoleon message was a result of the Tuesday prayer day and the second instalment of praying over the island of Corsica (Australia was also prayed over three times a few years back).  We have also put a link for an article on the actual story behind the "Exorcist" movie from the 1970s.  There is a brief teaching about this article as well and there will be more to come.

We know that some may feel a little disconnected from what's going on in the ministry because the only real 'news' that you get is just the prayer updates.  I know that occasionally there are messages from God that are delivered through the prayer email as well but we hope that the blog can hopefully invite you to become more involved and more aware of what happens in the life of the Gate to Heaven Ministry and in so doing pray more fervently for the work that the Lord has invited us to.  Although these prayer emails are absolutely necessary and helpful, it would be the equivalent of only ever eating chicken (sorry to the vegans).  Once in a while a person craves steak, veggies, pasta, dessert etc. as well so for this very reason we are trying to fill out the blog to be more informative and entertaining. The picture below is there for you see the link titles at the top of the blog so you can find what you are searching for more easily.  For now the links are as following:


The links are quite self explanatory but regarding the new postings and info I'll direct you to where they are hosted.  For example, any message from God or a saint or in the present case, the message from Napoleon, will be saved in the "Written Messages" section and if there is an audio file to go along with it, then it will be filed in the "Important Media" section.  When there are interesting articles, like the one on the exorcism of Robbie Mannheim (with the G2H teaching), it will be posted in the "CHECK THIS OUT" section.  The Videos, Prayers,  and Photo links are pretty obvious but the section on Biography will one day have a more elaborate and informative background of Rachel and the ministry.  We are often asked by the Lord to watch a movie on Netflix or in some other form and this is because there are often teachings for humanity.  I hope that this will soon be shared either through the 'video' section or the 'check this out' link.  Mission trips just has a list of places that she has been and the Victory Wall is hopefully where anyone can post some gift or blessing that they received from the Lord and this will act as a supplement to the "praise report" that is sent through the regular email updates.   I do warn however that this section is subject to editing according to what the Lord requires; this is understandable because like all blogs there is a moderator etc.  This post that I am writing right now actually could have been 'housed' in the 'Latest Posts' section but I felt it was more important to put in the 'Home' section because this is the first post that will show up when you click the link or search Google for "the gate to heaven ministry blogger" and it will bring you straight to here.

The "Context" section will be just for those who have never met Rachel or never heard of the Gate to Heaven Ministry and happened upon the online accidentally or even referred to it by one of you guys.

Another result of the feedback I've received lately is that maybe we could try to raise money like other ministries, by selling things and offering items with the hope of receiving a donation or 'suggested donation'.  In this light, we've asked the Lord about this recent project or PDF regarding the End Times and He said "a donation will be fine".   So, instead of just sending this latest collections of messages about the end time, we will ask people to give a small donation if they would like this 'booklet'.  We will keep it simple so it will be on the honour system.  For those who have already given or want to give just for this booklet then send it in the same way we receive donations: contact Christina at g2hchristina@gmail.com.  We will send it out shortly once it has been reviewed the final time and made some more edits.  In the future, if we develop the 'Ministry Store' section and add more items, then it will work in a different manner and the purchases or donations regarding items will be handled separately.  All of this is still a work in progress and we are learning as we do it so please be patient.

Thanks again, and if there any more suggestions of how to generate interest, how to organize the content, how to get God's message out there etc., please feel free to email me at gatetoheavenministriesnpo@gmail.com.  I know there are some out there that have advertising and marketing background so anything helps.

Thanks for your patience and God bless you from Rachel.
