Sukkot 2013 - Over and Out

This passing week of Sukkot has been a wonderful time of fellowship with those who could stay the entire time, as well as many others popping in for a visit or a few days here and there.

How blessed are we to be able to come together with a few like-minded disciples of Yeshua and celebrate the ways and instructions of YHVH.

I've thrown together a few photos from Christine's camera to give you a brief overview of our activities:

We were blessed to have 13 lambs born over the past few weeks so they required tagging and vaccinating.

Now when you leave grown men together in a room with nurf guns it's bound to get a little ugly.

A highlight of our time together is always the "Hebron Follies", where young and old alike are given the opportunity to delight this captive audience. Our MC for this year was Christine and she is a natural so will probably retain this role for many years to come! Unfortunately she was also the chief photographer for the week so I don't have a photo with her in it either.

The other annual Sukkot event is the game of cricket by the dam. Lord's cricket ground would not have a more spectacular view, nor on field entertainment.

Visitors and excited little faces ....

For me, entering shabbat together is always a delight. Our expressions are a little different from family to family so it's such a blessing to be able to enter into shabbat as a community at times like this.

As our hearts are continually focused on the coming again of our Messiah Yeshua we are being moulded and guided by the Spirit of YHVH. It's a joy and blessing to be led on the path of observing Torah and embracing the ways of our Creator!

Nehemiah 10:28 "The rest of the people, the cohanim, the Levites, the gatekeepers, the singers, the temple servants and all who had separated themselves from the peoples of the lands to the Torah of YHVH, along with their wives, sons and daughters, everyone capable of knowing and understanding, ³⁰⁽²⁹⁾joined their kinsmen and their leaders in swearing an oath, accompanied by a curse [in case of noncompliance], as follows:

“We will live by God’s Torah, given by Moshe the servant of God, and will perform and obey all the mitzvot, rulings and laws of YHVH our Adoni".

Sukkot 2024

The Healing to the Nations fellowship came together to celebrate Sukkot here at Hebron and what a blessed time it was. It seems that since Sukkot life and work got crazy busy so an update on our time together slipped off the priority list. But as I reflect back on our time together and what has transpired since then I am again encouraged. There was a flurry of preparation in the meeting room and sukkah, and Hebron was ready for a big week of fellowship, praise and times with our King and Adonai. Although there was one big disappointment because I could not locate the flags that we line the driveway with. Colourful flags will definitely make an appearance for Sukkot 2025 though. Not everyone was able to come up at Sukkot and they were missed but there is always next year. Father Yehovah's wisdom in establishing the annual feasts is such a powerful prophetic witness and joy for Messiah's body. The highlight of Sukkot is always spending time under the sukkah in the ...

Blessed Dry Times

In Australia it's summer time. In South Australia it's particularly dry and there is a real possibility of below average rainfall for the autumn season as well. This is not unusual for our part of the country. It's part of the natural cycles and here at Hebron we take the necessary preparations. The dams are drying up but we have plenty of rainwater in the tanks and a bore that draws up water from 60 metres below, so for a short dry spell we are well prepared. We have enough dry feed in the paddocks and bales of hay for the flock of sheep to get us through this dry season. I'm actually grateful for this dry spell this month because it means that the evil caltrop has not germinated, saving me from a lot of work. Caltrop (think the most evil version of a three-corner jack!) needs higher temperatures and good spring rains to germinate - usually in early December. Caltrop and I will continue our battle if we get rain before the summer ends though! B...

Sheep of His Pasture

The guys have been out fixing fences so that our flock can move into the paddock. The roos have a tendency to break fences and dig holes so it's an ongoing chore unfortunately. Whilst it's rather nice to see them out in the paddocks, and to see when the joeys emerge from the pouch, it can be frustrating as well. Moving the flock into a different paddock is always one of my favourite things to do because you get to give them a closer check and they're always excited about going into a fresh paddock. So late in the afternoon last Friday I thought, why not share it with you as well. Enjoy a quick visit to Hebron and I pray that wherever you are, in whatever pasture our Father YHVH has you, that you are blessed and experiencing His overshadowing kindness.
