Women of Valor
The Women of Valor page was created to honor the women who inspire me to strive to be a better me, to seek a closer relationship with Yahweh, Yeshua and the Ruach Ha Kodesh. Their friendship reaches my heart in such a way they will always be a part of me, Sisters in Yeshua. Their endless desire to bring others to Yahweh, to receive the Salvation through the Blood of Yeshua, inspires me to pick up their sword and follow in their footsteps toward the Kingdom of Yahweh. I wait for the day that I will join them at the feet of Yeshua, on that bright and glorious day.
Blessings and Shalom,
Helen Thomas
Vera
“You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might…”
— Deuteronomy 6:5
This is the way Vera Estrada loved Adonai. Her focus was always on the Kingdom of Adonai and how she could bring others to know HIM. Vera worked many years on the mission field bringing people to know Yeshua, to accept HIM as their Salvation and the way to eternal life. She worked tirelessly on the mission fields of South America and Mexico. Vera and her husband David were co-founders of The Ha Derech (The Way) Ministries that still today reaches many people throughout the Southwestern United States. Vera worked throughout New Mexico and the Navajo Nation seeding Messianic congregations. She had the great ability to bring people together to make them feel part of the Body of Yeshua and HIS Congregation. She was a faithful women’s leader in her home Kahlila (Church), Olive Tree in Albuquerque, New Mexico. She loved studying HIS Word and took much pleasure in Worshiping and Praising HIM. Those that had the privilege to know and love Vera knew of her strong faith and courage, determination, strength, and passion for Adonai. Vera lived her life as a “Woman of Valor”; she never gave up and took care of all those around her in a way that was a picture of the love of Yeshua the Messiah.
Bobbi
“Praise HIM and Give HIM the Glory”
Barbara “Bobbi” Middleton, was a Woman of Valor for the Lord and Jesus. Bobbi was a loving wife, mother and grandmother, a genuine picture of the Virtuous Woman. She lived her life in such a way that to have known her or just to have been blessed to have crossed her path, you would have experienced the light of Jesus. Bobbi’s very existence was to glorify HIM and increased HIS Kingdom. Not only was she a tribute to her community but she traveled the world on countless mission trips to take the WORD of the Lord and the gift of salvation to those in the places that had not heard HIS name. Bobbi spread HIS light in the darkness. Her hours spent volunteering in churches, schools and in communities alone was a picture of her devotion and love for Jesus. Bobbi’s torch has been passed to women of Christ to pick it up and spread the light as she did, of HIS love and salvation. Pick up the Torch and spread the light, and as Bobbi would say to you, “Praise HIM and Give HIM the Glory”.
