1 Feast of Tabernacles 2017

2 Warmest Greetings to You! We extend a warm welcome as you join us for the 2017 Feast of Tabernacles! Our goal at Yahweh s Restoration Ministry is to be true to the Word and to honor Yahweh in every way. We are glad that you share these same desires. Finding those who are sincere in following and obeying Yahweh in all things is like discovering a jewel in the sand, but much more precious. The Feast is a time to focus on Yahweh and enjoy the fellowship of brethren. To get the most spiritually out of the Feast, we will have several services and Bible workshops scheduled. We will have children s and youth classes throughout the Feast as well. Plenty of time will be allowed for fellowship, study, relaxation, and recreation. The young and young at heart should have a great time with all that the Ministry offers. In Leviticus 23:40 Yahweh commands us to rejoice at His Feast, and we plan to do just that! During the Bible workshops, courtesy is to be exercised, and each should come with a humble attitude that we are all still learning about Yahweh and His ways for us. Baptism into Yahshua s Name is an important step that True Worshipers are to take, John 3:5. Being immersed at the Feast among believers makes the occasion that much more memorable. We will set aside time to counsel those seeking immersion. A baptismal service is scheduled toward the end of the Feast. Those seeking immersion or counseling must see Deacon Terry O Neal to schedule counseling. 1

3 Guidelines for a Great Feast We want everyone to have a memorable Feast. Therefore we have established the following guidelines to ensure proper order for everyone s enjoyment and edification. Foremost, we are here to learn of Yahweh s will for us. For this reason we encourage all to attend the worship services along with the scheduled Bible workshops. Yahweh is always top priority. All speakers and moderators have been pre-selected. We do, however, invite brethren to be involved in other ways in the services. Please give the speakers your utmost attention and afford them the courtesy of not interrupting during their messages. If you have a question about the message you may ask it of the speaker after services. Also, try to remain seated during services. If you must get up during the service we ask that you do so quietly and in a nondisruptive manner. Please instruct your children to do the same. Dress Code To ensure proper respect during worship times, we request that men and boys wear dress or collar shirts and pants. Women and young ladies should wear dresses, skirts that cover the knee or dress pants. If you do not have this attire for worship please come in your best. At all times, please avoid immodest shorts, sleeveless, tight or low-cut clothing. This includes modesty in the communal bathrooms. Also, women and young ladies should cover their heads during worship (1Cor. 11:6) and men are to leave their heads uncovered (1Cor. 11:7). This includes both formal Bible workshops and services. 2

4 Be Respectful This Feast is sponsored by YRM. If you have doctrinal differences from our statement of beliefs, we ask that you discuss them only with YRM ministers and not go around privately to others, including in private Bible studies away from the grounds. This request is to maintain sound doctrine and spiritual unity throughout the Feast. High Days and Sabbath We ask that all Feast-goers, adults and children alike, respect the High Days and weekly Sabbath by remembering that these are times of rest and spiritual fellowship, Exodus 20:8-11; Isaiah 58:13. Cooking or baking in the kitchen or roasting over campfires on these days is prohibited, Exodus 16:23. In addition, no organized sports or hard play is permitted, including for children, on High Days and the Sabbath. The gym will also be closed during these times. Parental Responsibilities It is important that the young people have a great time at the Feast and build wonderful memories of obeying Yahweh at His special time. To ensure safety and order, parents should have their children under control and know of their whereabouts at all times. Children s and Youth Classes Children s classes will be available to children ages 3-7 and youth classes for ages 8-12 during most services. There will also be an open, unsupervised, nursery and playroom for mothers with children (for ages 4 and under). Kitchen and Cleanup Those using YRM s kitchen must clean up after themselves, including rinsing dishes and placing them in the dishwasher. Nothing should be left in the sink. Those who leave the kitchen messy may 3

5 forfeit the use of the kitchen. For questions regarding facilities, please see kitchen coordinators. YRM s refrigerators and freezers are reserved for group fellowship and communal meals only. Groceries for individual meals must be stored in personal coolers or refrigerators (an ice machine is located in YRM s kitchen). Meals YRM will be providing many group meals throughout the Feast, including a youth dinner (prepared and served by the youth) and the men s BBQ (prepared and served by the men). There will also be a daily continental breakfast with waffles available on the non-sabbaths (High days). For a complete listing of meals, see schedule on pp Also, please avoid bringing food or drink into the worship hall. Volunteers For those who volunteered at registration, please see your assigned tasks on the volunteer sheet near the entrances of the fellowship hall. It s important to be punctual and complete all assigned tasks. If you are scheduled to volunteer, but find yourself unable, or would like to volunteer, please see Deacons Steve Reed or Terry O Neal. If it involves meal preparation, please see Jennifer Folliard. Building Hours The worship and fellowship hall will be open from 7:30 am 10:00 pm. The gym will be open throughout the Feast (except for Sabbaths and High days). We encourage parents to ensure that there is adult supervision for all those under the age of 12 in the gym. Also, if you are staying at YRM s campground and require access to the lower level communal bathrooms, please see Sister Debbie Wirl for a guest badge. 4

6 Personal Property While it s the goal of YRM that the Feast reflect the security and honesty of Yahweh s Kingdom, it s good practice not to leave personal property unattended during the Feast, including purses, wallets, and cell phones. Alcohol While Scripture permits alcohol at the Feast of Tabernacles (Deut. 14:26), abuse will not be tolerated. Alcohol must be placed into cups and not be brought into YRM facilities / buildings. Electronic Equipment and Musical Instruments Remind your children that all electronic and musical equipment, including shofars, are expensive and fragile and are off limits to everyone but the technicians and musicians. For assistance, please see Randy Dimmett or Ryan Mansager. Special Music/Offerings If you desire to offer praise, we encourage you to honor Yahweh with your gift during the times for special offerings. Please follow the guidelines below: (1) Use the sacred Names Yahweh and Yahshua and refrain from using the common titles. (2) Offerings are for songs and poems only. (3) Limit your offering to no more than six minutes. Campfire There will be a nightly 9 pm behind the meeting hall. We ask that children are supervised by an adult and that they refrain from placing wood in the fire. 5

7 Quiet Hours We request that all respect quiet hours from 10:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. Pets Pets are permitted at the Feast. However, owners must ensure that their pets do not become a nuisance, including excessive barking, and must be leashed when outside. Owners must clean up after their pets. Also, pets are not allowed in YRM facilities, unless owners have received pre-approval by the ministry.

On the first day shall be an holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work therein. Seven days ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto Yahweh: on the eighth day shall be an holy convocation unto you; and ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto Yahweh: it is a solemn assembly; and ye shall do no servile work therein.
