FEAST OF TABERNACLES 2009

Vian, OK

Sunset Sunday, October 4 - Sunset Monday, October 12, 2009

Truth On The Web Ministries welcomes you to join us in rejoicing before our Father and His Anointed near Vian, OK at scenic Tenkiller State Park for this year's observance of the Feast of Tabernacles. This park, known as "Heaven in the Hills," makes for close-knit fellowship with its cabins laid out in close proximity to each other, as well as being a wonderful place to drink in the beauty of God's creation. Members of the Body of Christ are expected from various locations across the country. All are welcome - we shall be as one.

What is the Feast of Tabernacles?  It is one of the festivals of the Bible instituted by the Creator (Leviticus 23) and observed by the Messiah (John 7). You can read more about it here:  The Feast of Tabernacles

If the question is in your mind as to whether Christians / Messianics should be keeping the Biblical Holydays, please access the following article:  Should I Be Observing the Biblical Holydays?

Location:  Tenkiller State Park is located ten miles north of the Vian exit on State Highway 82 in eastern Oklahoma. Services will be held daily beginning Monday morning, October 5th, at the Community Building located in the Park.

     For any of you "Feast-hoppers" (those who jump from site to site), please note that service will not be held at the Community Building on the weekly Sabbath day (October 10th, 2009)--it will be at either the outdoor ampitheater or picnic shelter.


The Community Building (pictured below) is located close to our cabins, near the courtyard cottages and the visitor center.


Services will consist of led prayer, congregational hymn singing (as well as any special music presentations - see Service Opportunities below), and sermon messages. There will be opportunity for brethren to share Scripture readings, as well as Q&A, and open Bible studies.  For the children (age 4 and up), there will be "Sabbath School"-type classes daily, prior to the regular services, beginning the 2nd day of the Feast.  And there will be plenty of opportunity for fellowship with all-day access to the Community Building, Group Picnics (with games and activities), dancing, and more.

 Service Opportunities:

If any brethren would like to perform special music, please bring your instrument(s) and make a joyful noise! We will have a digital keyboard available for use.

If any would like to help lead/teach "Messianic/Davidic dance," please let us know.

If any have any other offers of servitude, please contact us to share your offer. Thank you!
