SUNDOWN, FRIDAY, OCT 11-12 AT SUNDOWN
We will gather as a body for our regular Shabbat service on *Friday night, October 11th and then meet on Saturday, October 12th at 7:00 p.m for our Yom Kippur service. During this time we will seek God’s heart and mind as a congregation for the coming year.
The Scriptures state it is a day to “humble our souls” (Lev. 23: 32). The Seventh Month Festivals begin this year (2024) on Wednesday evening October 2nd with The Feast of Trumpets (Yom T’ruah), followed by The Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) 10 days later, and end with The Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot). The days between Trumpets and Yom Kippur initiate a process of reflection for the body to consider what the Lord has shown us to do, and will lead to the consecration of ourselves to these assignments on Yom Kippur. Please ensure that you are a part of this important service at the end of Yom Kippur on Saturday night. If you need additional information, please see Pastor Roger Diaz.
*Please note we will not have an oneg Friday evening and instead, we will gather together Saturday night for the service, have communion and then break the fast with an oneg.
