ROSH HASHANAH

About this gathering

Rosh Hashanah, the Feast of Trumpets, opens the High Holy Days and the head of the biblical year. Scripture calls it a day of blowing the shofar — a sound meant to wake the heart and call us back to God.

We gather twice: Friday evening, September 11 at 7:00 PM to welcome the feast, and Saturday morning, September 12 at 11:00 AM for our Shabbat Morning order — Hebrew liturgy, modern worship, Torah reading and Messianic teaching.

For those in Messiah, the trumpet carries a further hope: the promise that Yeshua will return at the sound of the shofar. You do not need any background in the feasts to come — everything is explained as we go.
