Dear RTO family,

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!

This Thanksgiving season, we are thankful for all of you, the ministry you are doing for God's glory, and the impact you have in God's Kingdom and in our lives. We are also thankful to the Lord for all He has done for us this year, including our growing family!


A special word of thanks for all of you who attended the RTO Conference in Anaheim. Thank you to Bishop David and Violeta Salar and to Emanuel Church for being such incredible hosts. We experienced great outpouring of the Spirit, explosive worship, powerful messages, and authentic fellowship. The Emanuel Worship Band and Phila Youth Choir did an excellent job in leading the congregation in worship every service. Pastor David Usvat, Bishop Florin Cimpean, Bishop Nelu Rus, Dr. Raymond Culpepper, Dr. Moise Gaode, and Pastor Teo Scorte presented powerful messages which impacted the audience. Dr. Sean O'Neal presented a cutting-edge seminar for present-day leaders. The host treated us with outstanding hospitality. We agreed to Sow, to Grow and to Go for God's Glory in God's Kingdom.

Before I end this section, I want to remind you of the Four Laws of Spiritual Agreement:

The first one is the Law of Priority which simply means that you reap a harvest if you sow a seed (Matthew 18:9). Therefore, make it a priority in sowing. That's our responsibility. It is God's responsibility to make it grow.

The second one is the Law of Reciprocity which states that anyone reaps what anyone sows according to Galatians 6:7. Therefore, let's pay attention to what we sow as our harvest is rooted in our act of sowing.

The third law is the Law of Multiplicity or Multiplication. The concept here is that in God's economy, we reap more than what we sow.

Finally, it is the Law of Perpetuity which means that we reap later than when we sow (Galatians 6:8). Therefore, let's not become weary, let's not be deceived, let's not lose our patience and anticipation because God is faithful, and he will fulfill what he promised in this age and in the age to come.


As we gather to celebrate Thanksgiving, let's thank God for the harvest He has given to all of us and agree for an even greater harvest in the year ahead.


Happy Thanksgiving!


Always with love,

Florin and Michelle Cimpean

Thank you Pastor David Salar & Emanuel Church
