Shabbat/Yom Kippur 5784

Shalom and L’Shana Tovah!

We had an amazing weekend with a beautiful Yom Teruahservice on Friday evening with many visitors and a special presence of The Holy One! On Shabbat afternoon, many of us spent a glorious afternoon at Castlewood Canyon Church in Franktown to enjoy Beckah Shea, and again, the presence of Adonai was sweet and many people were touched by her music and her testimony! On Sunday I was invited to share at Fuel Church here in Monument on the Fall Feasts. Bishop Eugenio and myself were blessed by the openness of the folks as we shared on the “Feasts of The Lord”, and again, Yeshua was moving in our midst as we were able to pray for healing and anoint people with oil!

This Shabbat September 23rd at 11am is “T’Shuva Shabbat”, the Shabbat between Yom Teruah and Yom Kippur, named for the Haftorah portion found in Hosea 14:2, “RETURN O ISRAEL, TO ADONAI YOUR GOD, FOR YOU HAVE STUMBLED IN YOUR INIQUITY.” This is a season where God is calling His Kahal (called out ones, Church) to turn back to the One who has called us into covenant with Him! We also cry out for our nation to return to the One who forgives, restores and gives us life and purpose! I will be sharing a message on The Fruit of a Yielded Life, as we are desiring a closer more intimate walk with our Lord. We will have a potluck Oneg following the service, so bring a dish to share and stay for fellowship! On Sunday evening September 24th, we will be having our annual KOL NIDRE YOM KIPPUR SERVICE at The Dwelling Place at 6:30pm! All are invited to this special service of breaking vows, public confession and decrees, and proclaiming that the blood of our precious Yeshua is and always will be our only Atonement! We will enter into the Biblical fast for 24 hours after this service. The address for both of our services this weekend is 16800 W.9th Ave Golden, 80401.

Next week is our Succoth Celebration with The Rabbi’s Son, Bill bullock! We will send out more information for this event in the coming days, but you will not want to miss this time! There are spaces to camp out or bring an RV to this event at Castlewood Canyon Church that will take place Friday September 30th - Sunday October 1st. Let us know if you are interested in camping out! Also, we will send out instructions on how you can have a wonderful breakfast brisket burrito for that Shabbat morning! We are also looking for volunteers to prepare a couple of soups for the Friday evening! As you can see, this is a very special time of the year for Community!
