Opening Night – Feast of Tabernacles 2025

We begin the Feast of Tabernacles with an evening of worship, teaching, and fellowship. As we gather, voices will rise in praise, preparing our hearts for the days ahead. Pastor Mark D. Vlad will share a message that centers us on Yahshua, the true Messiah, and sets the tone for the celebration to follow.

When the service concludes, the evening continues with fellowship and snacks provided by the church; a time to connect, laugh, and share in the joy of this season together.

The Feast continues with a family-friendly movie night, a time to relax and share in fellowship while enjoying films that inspire and uplift. Concessions will be available, adding to the fun and making it feel like a true night out together.

To create space for all ages, we’ll show a film for the kids and a separate feature for the adults. Both will be faith-filled selections, chosen to encourage and challenge us as we walk in our journey of following Yahshua.

It’s an evening of joy, reflection, and community—reminding us that even through stories on a screen, our hearts can be drawn closer to Him.

Movie titles to be announced at a later date!

On our third night, we gather not only to celebrate but also to learn and strengthen our faith. Caleb Oliva will lead us in a focused study on the birth of Yahshua and its deep connection to the Feast of Tabernacles. Together, we’ll be presented with insights that open our understanding, while also creating space to ask questions and dig deeper into the Scriptures.

This night is about more than study—it’s about equipping ourselves to defend the truth of our faith with confidence and clarity when we are asked. As the discussion concludes, fellowship will continue around a potluck dessert bar, where we can share both sweet treats and meaningful conversation.

After several evenings of worship, teaching, and fellowship, we pause to rest. This day is set aside as a reminder that the Feast is not only about gathering but also about slowing down—taking time to reflect, to pray, and to enjoy the stillness of Yahshua’s presence.

Rest is part of the rhythm of the Feast, giving us space to renew our strength and prepare our hearts for the days yet to come.

The Feast continues with a night led entirely by our young people—a joyful reminder that the next generation is rising to serve, lead, and share their faith. On this evening, the youth will be hosting a ticketed Spaghetti Dinner, with all proceeds supporting the Youth Ministry fund.

Guests will enjoy a full meal, choosing between Spaghetti and Meatballs or Chicken Alfredo, served with garlic bread, tossed salad, dessert, and drinks. But this evening is about much more than dinner—the students themselves will serve tables, share messages from their hearts, and present special presentations throughout the night.

It will be an evening filled with encouragement, laughter, and inspiration as we witness the gifts Yahshua is stirring within our youth.

Tickets for this event will be sold in advance. Please reach out to Naomi or Rachel for more information!

As we gather for Sabbath during the Feast, we come expecting a day that is both meaningful and interactive. Pastor Mark D. Vlad will bring the message, guiding us deeper into the truth of Yahshua. But this will not be a typical service—together we’ll take part in a special, hands-on experience, moving through several stations set up along the drive outside. Each station is designed to connect the story of Yahshua to the Feast of Tabernacles, making the Scripture tangible and inviting us to see His presence in every detail.

After the service, the celebration continues with our Chili Cook-Off. Bring your favorite recipe or come ready to sample the delicious creations of others. It promises to be a day full of worship, learning, and joyful community.

As the evening unfolds, we invite you to stay after our potluck for a night that celebrates the gifts Yahshua has placed within each of us. Specials Night is an opportunity for members of our congregation to share their talents, passions, and creative expressions with the community—whether through music, art, spoken word, or other unique gifts.

This night is a joyful reminder that every talent is a blessing, and every expression of faith can inspire and uplift those around us. Come ready to be encouraged, amazed, and reminded of the diverse ways Yahshua works through His people.

We close out the Feast with a day designed for fun, laughter, and togetherness. Starting at 4 PM, join us for Game Day, packed with “Minute to Win It” challenges, trivia, skits, and activities that will have the whole family smiling and cheering.

After the games, we’ll gather for pizza to celebrate the week we’ve shared, followed by a cozy bonfire with s’mores—a perfect way to reflect, relax, and enjoy the warmth of fellowship one last time.

It’s a day full of joy, connection, and the simple delight of being together, wrapping up the Feast on a note of celebration and gratitude for all that Yahshua has done among us.
