Come enjoy the fall Festival of
Tabernacles (Festival of Sukkot 2008) with us at beautiful
Paris Landing State Park in TN (just northwest of Nashville) as
we study the "Hebrew Roots" of the
festivals. Eight days of interactive seminars,
along with daily Messianic praise and worship,
Hebrew dancing, and hearty fellowship will serve
to teach us about and bring us closer to the true
meaning of the festival.
We are planning a
re-enactment of the "Water Pouring
Ceremony" and the "Festival
of Lights"; first century Temple
services that Yeshua the Messiah probably
participated in as he observed the festival in
Jerusalem with His family, friends, and disciples.

In addition, twice daily general
seminar topics will focus on this year's theme - "Prepare
the Way". Along
with the daily general seminars, there will be daily
"break-out" sessions where those who would
like to present a topic of their own or teach a craft
will have the opportunity to do so. Some of the
topics that have been covered in the past include
Tzit-tzit Tying, Biblical Herbs, the Restoration of the
Two Houses of Israel, Shofar Blowing, Hebrew
Dance,
Bible Study Techniques, Sewing Hebrew Garments, and the
Dead Sea Scrolls.
We
will again have a number of
"Question and Answer" sessions. In these
sessions, we will have various teachers available to answer
questions in a "round table" type discussion.
We will solicit questions at the beginning of the
festival, then discuss them at these sessions. For those who are new to the
"Hebrew Roots" understanding, we will also
have a breakout session discussing "What is Hebrew
Roots?".

Besides all the opportunities we'll have to learn from
the many gifted teachers, we will also have times to relax
and interact during activities such as the Hamburger
Cookout/Ice Cream Social, the Talent Show, and the
Israel Family Dinner. Practically every evening
we'll be able to participate in Hebrew dance led by
various Hebraic Dance instructors. There are
also activities
available at the lodge such as swimming, water skiing,
golf, and horseback riding.
There
is no charge or registration fee for attending the
Season of Our Joy festival, and we do not take up
offerings at the festival. If you are so inclined,
we will gladly accept
a donation to help with the costs.
