This ministry was born out of personal,
physical need in 1996, when a sister in
the ministry was experiencing major,
multiple health problems that, despite
our efforts to solve them by natural
remedies, her overall health did not
improve. Herbs, essential oils, etc. gave
her some temporary relief, but did not
make the problems go away. Our faith was
for her total healing, but all our
efforts appeared to be of no affect.
Ministry brethren in Oregon
suggested we write George and Rhonda
Malkmus, since Rhonda had been healed of
a degenerative spine many years ago by
simply changing her diet. Out of
curiosity I contacted the Malkmuses and
was overwhelmed when they sent us a copy
of their newsletter, "Back to the
Garden." I read their newsletter
with hungry enthusiasm, devouring the
information on every page. The many
testimonies published brought us hope. We
immediately sent for George's video, 'How
to Elmininate Sickness.'
When the video arrived, we
watched it right away. As George Malkmus
explained the health risks inherent in
the standard American diet (SAD) and why
we needed to eat fresh,raw fruit and
vegetables as stated in Genesis 1:29 so
that our bodies can heal themselves and
be healthy, we knew this lifestyle was
for us. He explained how live food
properly nourishes our bodies, and showed
us the way to ultimate health. The next
day, September 11, 1996, we went on the
Hallelujah Diet 'cold turkey.'
A brief hospitalization
became a reluctant reality for our
sister, nevertheless we were faithful to
bring her carrot juice, BarleyMax, and
salads every day. Whereas this tactic did
not go over well with the Dr. and medical
attendants, I was determined to carry out
the Hallelujah Plan. I knew it was the
will of My Heavenly Father who does not
fail. Our sister's recovery was so
immediate that the medical authorities
could hardly believe their eyes. In two
short weeks, our sister was walking,
talking, and cogent once again. Though
she was still on heavy pain medication,
she was well on her way to renewed
health.
The rest is now history. Our
ailing sister was completely healed and
free of all medication.Her testimony
became one of encouragement and hope to
those who have been at death's door. She
amazed the doctors, and we give YHVH our
Heavenly Father all the glory for her
complete recovery. He brought the
knowledge of His diet to us in our time
of need. He is faithful to answer prayer.
So impressed were we with
the Hallelujah diet and lifestyle that I
was compelled to attend a Hallelujah
Acres Health Minister Training Seminar in
May 1997. I am now happy to help others
learn the wonderful truth 'You don't have
to be sick!'
I am personally overjoyed
with the Hallelujah diet which, in
essence is a lifestyle. It has brought me
fulfillment in many ways. Though earlier
in my life I had some knowledge of eating
naturally, I lacked the connection to
Genesis 1:29 that makes it right. It is
important to me as a believer to base
everything I do on the authority of My
Heavenly Father's word. For me, the
Hallelujah lifestyle offers solid,
Biblical answers to achieving Divine
health.
It is now many years since I
changed to the Genesis 1:29 diet, and I
feel great! Though I never experienced
any major health problems in my life, I
did have hypoglycemia that was
problematical at times. After only two
weeks on the Hallelujah Diet, my
hypoglycemia was gone. It has never
returned. I have excellent stamina,
abounding energy as well as improved
mental and spiritual acuity. I am able to
work longer hours and accomplish more.
Every day is another wonderful
opportunity to BE ALIVE!
Helping others gain a
healthier, happier life is part of my
life's mission. I have always disliked
sickness and anything associated with it.
My natural tendency has always been to
avoid doctors, nurses, and hospitals at
all costs. Now I know why. It is now my
privilege to be a part of the healing
process in many lives. I believe the
Genesis 1:29 diet is a major key to the
promise of body redemption found
throughout the scriptures. Romans 8:23
speaks specificially of the redemption of
our bodies. We must 'cleanse our temples'
both naturally and spiritually, if we
expect to enter YHVH's kingdom in this
age. I believe eating right is part of
fulfilling the daily prayer,' Thy kingdom
come, thy will be done on earth as it is
in heaven.' As a believer,
my desire is to have heaven on earth. I
think this is what life is all about.
Apart from being a health
minister, I am an artist. I
have painted professionally since 1973
and have enjoyed recognition primarily as
an oil painter. With the advent of the
live food diet in my life, my portfolio
has now expanded into the ministry of
health. My love of fruits and vegetables
is captured in colorful pastels and oil
paintings. I have done illustrations and
greeting cards that celebrate the
Hallelujah lifestyle. Some of my 'healthy
art' is posted on this
website.
If I can be of help to you
in discovering the wonderful world of
'heavenly health,' please let me know. No
inquiry or comment is too insignificant
that I will not respond. I am happy to
encourage you toward a healthier, happier
lifestyle that will prosper you for the
sake of YHVH's kingdom come in you.
In His Excellent Love and
Service,
Mary Louise;Town Jaqua
Health Minister
