Volume 14, Number 1, September-October 2010

The Feast of Tabernacles in The music was excellent with a great
variety being presented. Words were always on several big screens, so it
was easy to sing along. Most people left services feeling that they had
been inspired. A tabernacle was constructed in the
corner of the main meeting room as taught in the Bible (Lev 23:40-42; Neh
8:15). Most of the teaching was done in interactive seminars where everyone
could ask questions and participate. There was a variety to choose from—one
could spend the whole Feast and never hear the same speaker twice. About half the people were between the ages of 15 and 25. A lot of friends were made that will be kept for many years. Several engagements and marriages have occurred among people who became acquainted with others at these Feasts and at mid-year retreats hosted by many of the same people. When young people happily marry someone of a certain religious belief, they are much more likely to stay in that belief. May God continue to bless His Feasts! (Lev 23:1-4) |

The Utica Feast hosted many activities
for all ages. Pictures here are one of the five group meals attended by
nearly everyone and an ad-hoc hike in the nearby woods. There were also,
sports, dances, crafts, and plenty of good old-fashioned fellowship. |
