Bend-Redmond Oregon Chronicling the activities of Jesus Christ's earthly ministry, the book of John points out that when the "Feast of Tabernacles was at hand," Jesus Himself "went up to the feast" and taught at the Temple in Jerusalem. This was done in observance of the final of three annual Festival seasons that are outlined in the Bible, particularly in the book of Leviticus. These three seasons, the Passover and Days of Unleavened Bread, the Festival of Pentecost and the Fall Festival season, were all observed by Jesus and the first-century Church. The latter season is capped by the eight-day Festival of Tabernacles and Last Great Day (Leviticus 23:33-36). As part of the United Church of God's commitment to follow the example of the first-century Church, we keep these days, even though they are essentially nontraditional in today's age and not largely observed by other religious organizations. We, the Bend congregation of the United Church of God, appreciate the opportunity of hosting the Feast of Tabernacles here again this year. We believe you will enjoy a pleasing foretaste of the World Tomorrow in the scenic, millennial atmosphere of Central Oregon. More information will be available in the Feast brochure at the Festival site. |
