Sukkot Preparations

It's all systems go as we prepare for Sukkot so just a few pictures and words this time ...

We employed a team of pavers to lay the pavers for our barbeque area ...

.... and Neal is installing protective fencing to shield against the winds.

A path and playground is being completed to create a garden area.

A lamb and an older ewe went off to be slaughtered and dressed in preparation for the upcoming barbeques and roasts.

The pine nut trees I planted 7 years ago are producing their first pine cones so I'm pretty excited to see how they develop.

Sukkot begins in a couple of days and it will be a time of celebration, fellowship, reflection and worship. I will update the blog every couple of days so that those who aren't able to be here at Hebron with us will be able to follow what we've been up to.

We may not 'do' the festivals perfectly, but we come with grateful hearts to honour YHVH and His ways, testifying of the truth of His redemptive plan.

Shalom.

Where Your Treasure Is.....

Life has changed for our community and we are now split between two geographic locations - Salem and Mildura - with a few of us coming and going between them. When the scripture says we are an 'unusual people', that certainly has an added layer for our community! We are full of anticipation of what YHVH will pour out for the people of Australia, particularly the towns along the Murray River and Victoria. But coming home to Hebron is always so good for the soul. Open skies - Open spaces So lovely to see water in the top dam, grass emerging and paddocks been sown for this year's hay crop. I have been reflecting more on the truth and freedom of Yeshua's command: Do not lay up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and whe...

2025 Moedim - Appointed Times

Here in Australia it's spring but in the northern hemisphere the feasts at this time of year are known as the 'fall feasts' - Yom Teruah, Yom Kippur and Sukkot. Yom Teruah Teaching It's new moon, Yom Teruah and we are anticipating Yom Kippur and the joy of Sukkot. It's time for shouting, rejoicing, repenting and preparation - all in expectation to meet our King, our Messiah! We put up banners, decorate our sukkah, fill the fridges and light the fires. We will rejoice, we will enjoy each other's company but most of all, we know we will bless our Father with our obedience and He in turn will bless us. See you there!

Sukkot 2025

When the sun set on the 8th day of Sukkot there was much to be grateful for. It was a week of joy and laughter, and serious reflection. I sit here trying to put into a succinct paragraph all that transpired but suffice to say, the Creator of the heavens and the earth, our Abba, met with us, encouraged and refined us. We were joined by a brother and sister from Western Australia - family in the Messiah that we just hadn't met yet. We look forward to meeting many more of Yeshua's community in the years to come! We love to praise - I mean we really love to sing and shout His praises. We do our best to do as David instructs and maybe we're not as skilful or harmonious, but we certainly are joyful! The praise and teaching times were recorded to YouTube if you want a refresher. Like I said, we might not be polished in sound or technique, but we are uncompromising in our devotion to Him and His Word. Sukkot Worship & Teaching YHV...
