Swings and Roundabouts

Two newcomers have joined us here at Hebron and the father and son team will help grow the flock. In fact the 3 year old elder leapt out of the trailer and took off to cause mayhem amongst the girls as soon as the gate was opened. The younger one had an initial case of separation anxiety (he was hand raised) but he's blended in well now.

We also had a visit from an intrepid team of tree loppers pruning a couple of our big red gums running under the power line. This fearless trio requested that they access Bidgebar's pines from our middle paddock and my permission came at the cost of a truck load of mulch.

Unfortunately they decided to take the low soggy road along the fence line and promptly got themselves seriously bogged. But never fear, our trusty John Deer went into action and after some slipping and sliding managed to extract them.

This weekend we will be gathering together up here at Hebron on Shabbat. It will also be New Moon on the following day so a pefect weekend to give honour to our Messiah Yeshua and testify of His return to establish the kingdom of YHVH.

Moedim Preparations

Spring Festival Preparations For us in the southern hemisphere Yom Teruah, Yom Kippur and Sukkot falls in spring. I might be biased but I think we're pretty blessed to have the new year begin when there's new life and blossom appearing. On the other hand the weather and wind can be a unpredictable but hey, it keeps it real for Sukkot! This year there's the anticipation of celebrating Sukkot and all that it prophetically points to, but there is a longing to fellowship with our Father and bless Him, listen to Him and enjoy His family. Yakira and I have been excited with the very real expectation that for us there will be a freshness and new life so we have been busy making sure the fellowship home and gardens reflect this. So we not only make physical preparations but we prepare our hearts. Yom Teruah has been, Yom Kippur is upon us and Sukkot is before us. Looking forward to seeing you all drive through our gates!

Misty Moments

July 2023 I've had a long hiatus in updating the blog but after some prompting I thought I'd pop up a short video. Yakira and I took some short clips of some of us and we'll do that regularly from now on. Every month our fellowship meets at Hebron to worship, to honour Shabbat, to enjoy each other's company and to maintain and develop the property. Those who can stay overnight so we can have more time to be together. It may seem an odd concept for regular church goers but it's entirely natural for us and something we look forward to. Eating together, hanging out, working and worshipping together all develops relationships, hones personalities and gives the Ruach time to refine and encourage us. This month was a delightful wintery, misty weekend. We are at the end of the Mount Lofty ranges so when the cloud sits low it's like being in your own private little world. Brendan and Neal worked on fixing the house water tank and John was relegated to the tract

Sukkot 2023 - The Winter is Past...

The voice of my lover. Behold, He is coming Leaping over the mountains, springing over the hills My lover is like a gazelle or a young buck among the stags Look! He is standing behind our wall, gazing through the windows Peering through the lattice. In response my lover said to me, "Get yourself up, my darling my pretty one, and come. Come! For behold, the winter is past, the rain is over, it's gone. Blossoms appear in the land and the time of singing has come... Song of Songs 2 * * * What a blessed time we had over Sukkot here at Hebron. A few weeks before the start of the festival I was impacted by the understanding that our Creator and Father anticipates meeting with His children more than we anticipate meeting with Him. His love, His desire to meet with us individually and as a fellowship far surpasses ours, to a degree that it is impossible for us to comprehend. And meet with Him we did. The moed are His. His appointments with people who call on His Name, ob
