Hi and thanks for your interesting thoughts.
Over here in europe there is not really a big noahide community as it is in the US. And I must say, that it seems a little odd to me, to build some kind of "noahide religion". I think, the noahides worship Hashem and therefore they actually should be more connected to the jewish people.
In the times, when I was a christian I was a very active member of my congregation. I even took duties of the lower priesthood (I used to serve as a reader / lector in an russian orthodox congregation). By the way, in the christian orthodox church it is obligatory before the main liturgy starts, that the lector reads loud the morning prayers in the church, what are in fact some of the Tehilim. I enjoyed that part of my duties the most
So, now as I follow the noahide laws I feel sometimes isolated. I cannot walk to services, have no one to talk to about the faith, have no religious holidays and have no spiritual counsellor anymore. Only the online communities are available. That makes me sad sometimes. I'm sure, you can imagine that.
But I will not complain, most of the time I am very glad and grateful, that I found my believe in Hashem
About Nissim: I had never been interested in Rap / HipHop Music, so I haven't heard of him. I found his videos on youtube by coincidence and find his story amazing and heartening. Today I like his music
Best wishes!
P.S.
The story of Dr. Rapp is really interesting!
