Wednesday Evening, Sept. 22 thru Thursday Evening, Sept. 30

Enjoy the fall Festival of Succot at our "Hebrew Roots” feast site as we spend eight days learning and studying the ways and walk of our Father and His Son, Yeshua, our Messiah and the meaning of this very special time of year referred to by some ancient Jewish sages as "the Season of Our JOY. Along with the numerous opportunities to hear from a number of gifted teachers,  there will be daily Messianic praise and worship along with Davidic dancing, and hearty fellowship - all intended to bring us closer to the true meaning of the festival.  Evenings are packed with activities for the whole family, including a Hamburger Cookout, a Fun Show, and Hebraic dance classes for teens and adults (including classes for beginners).

Because God's festivals are family oriented, we incorporate special children's and teen's classes and activities into the mix.  Being that our festival site, the Windermere Youth Camp, is an active youth camp, it is specifically patterned to be safe and enjoyable for children of all ages.  The camp is at the end of a long private road with virtually no traffic (almost everyone walks between activities) thus making it safe for children with bicycles.

Priest Drawing WaterYeshua observed all of God's festival at the Temple in Jerusalem.  Many of His teachings were within the context of the Jewish culture and traditions of His day.  To help illustrate one of His most important messages, we will all participate in the re-enactment of two of those traditions, the “Water Pouring Ceremony” and the “Festival of Lights", Temple services that Yeshua probably participated in as He observed the festival in Jerusalem along with His family, friends, and disciples.

There is plenty of housing available right on the Windermere grounds, ranging from primitive and RV campgrounds, to motel rooms, lodge rooms, and luxury cabins - and since most facilities have kitchens, you won't ever have to go to a restaurant.  But if you're tired of cooking, at the times when SOOJ is not having an activity, the dining hall will be serving great cafeteria style meals.

This year's theme is "Grafted In". Many of the messages will focus on the understanding that all of God's people become a part of the greater body of Israel, and with Messiah Yeshua's help, eventually become 'the Israel of God'.

Whether this is your first year to observe the Feast of Tabernacles, or you've been doing it for many years, you'll find Season of Our Joy to be a refreshing and enlightening festival experience.  Check us out!
