Also, the fall feasts are coming up quickly. Please be praying about how the Ruach may be leading you to share your resources.

The Fall Feasts are less than 2 weeks away.
Yom Teruah or Feast of Trumpets ~ Paige Community Center on Friday evening (9/15) at 6pm. Sept. 16 is a double Shabbat since Yom Teruah falls on the weekly Shabbat.
Yom Kippur or Day of Atonement Kol Nidrei Service at 4pm ~ Paige Community Center on Sunday evening (9/24). We are meeting early enough to share a meal time so please bring a personal meal (not a potluck). Please come dressed in white if you are able. We plan to start our fast at sundown. Monday is the actual day of Yom Kippur and a sabbath day of afflicting our souls for those 24 hours. Lisa Airaudi will be providing some focused time for the younger to learn more about this amazing feast.
Then for those of us in the Bastrop area, we are planning to meet at a park the next evening to break the fast together and continue to rejoice in Yah’s faithfulness and Yeshua being our forever High Priest following Monday evening
Sukkot is being hosted by the Brenham Community. Our campout is Sept. 29- Oct. 1 at the Miracle Farm retreat center. Please reach out to Jay if you have not received information via email concerning this event.
Don’t forget about our Men’s Signal live video prayer gatherings once a week on Tue. at 7pm. Besides prayer we’ve been having a great time of encouragement and testimonies. Also on Thursdays Jay Carper is hosting a virtual bible study of the book of Romans study at his CSBS network.
Last but not least we are delighted to announce the birth of Ashton & Alex’s healthy baby boy Asher!
If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to the Stones or Smiths.
