Blessings for a Good and Sweet New Year!

September 29, 2016

Rosh Hashanah – or the Feast of Trumpets – rings in the Jewish New Year with 100 blasts of the shofar. It begins the High Holy Days and is a time for celebration as well as reflection. As Jewish people the world over consider the coming year, they pray for God’s forgiveness and that He will “seal” them in the Book of Life for the year ahead. Year by year, they pray to be acceptable in His sight. As Believers, we have been brought near to God through the righteousness of Messiah and are sealed in the Lamb’s Book of Life! (Ephesians 2:13 and 1:13.)

May your New Year be filled with the

sweetness and prosperity

found only in Yeshua’s

abundant grace!

Welcome the Jewish year 5777!
