Sabbath and Holy Feast Days Bulletin for 03/30/2023

Hello Brothers and Sisters in Messiah Yeshua! Please pray for Yeshua to fully cleanse our hearts of any leaven as we focus on getting all of the leaven out of our homes in the next few days leading up to Passover. We have several opportunities to come before the Lord over the next two weeks and I invite you to fully embrace this time the Lord has given us to get closer with Him and celebrate the victory He has given us with His death on the cross and resurrection into eternal life.

Please see the following Holy Convocation Schedule and notes:

• Saturday, April 1, 2023: Regular Shabbat this Saturday: 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at 60 Bailey Ave., Manchester, N.H. for a time of rest in the Lord. Community prayer will begin around 10:10 a.m. in the sanctuary, and service will begin around 10:30 a.m. During our first service, I plan to deliver a sermon loosely based on this week’s Torah portions, which I am asking you to read prior to Shabbat: Leviticus 6:1-8:36; Jeremiah 7:21-8:3; Jeremiah 9:22-23; Malachi 3:4-24; Matthew 9:10-17; Hebrews 9:11-28 (https://bit.ly/3Knkgt1). During our second service, Pastor Daniel Joseph will be bringing us Part 43 in his series on “The Ten Commandments,” which will continue to focus on the Tenth Commandment, “Thou shall not covet”: (https://cornerfringeministries.subspla.sh/m2ccy2m). Oneg follows.
• NOTE: Please remove all leaven from your home and property before sundown on Wednesday, April 5, 2023, and plan to eat unleavened bread each day for seven days ending at sundown on Wednesday, April 12, 2023 in celebration of our Lord Yeshua, who is our Unleavened Bread offered on our behalf. He is the Bread of Life, who takes away the sins of this world, and “Blessed are those having been invited to the supper of the marriage of the Lamb.” (Read Revelation 19:9).
• Wednesday, April 5, 2023: The Passover Seder Dinner. This is a joint celebration with Calvary Chapel hosted by First Fruits Ministries. This is an RSVP event. Please let me know that you’re coming. Congregate at 6:30-6:45 p.m. at 60 Bailey Ave., Manchester, NH in the sanctuary. Ceremony will begin promptly at sundown around 7:16 p.m. in the sanctuary, and that will also begin the Passover Sabbath. The evening begins with about +/- 45 minutes of ceremony, followed by a feast, followed by another +/- 45 minutes of ceremony. NOTE: There will be a lot to eat, but everything will be happening in an orderly manner. Please do not come with an immediate desire to eat or be looking for food when you arrive. Our hearts must be focused on celebration of the Lord’s Supper. We are preparing for +/- 30 people. (Read: 1 Corinthians 11:23-34).
• Thursday, April 6, 2023: First Day of Unleavened Bread (This is a Sabbath Day, starting at sundown the night before. You should take off of work on April 6.): We will congregate at 11:30 a.m. at 60 Bailey Ave., Manchester, NH, and plan to begin the live-streamed Corner Fringe Ministries service at 11:45 a.m. At 2 p.m., we will enjoy Oneg until 4 p.m. We will not have a First Fruits service this day.
• Saturday, April 8, 2023: This will be the “High Shabbat” service during Passover week (Read John 19:31). We will continue to eat unleavened bread as part of the feast and otherwise it will be like a regular 10 a.m.-4 p.m. Shabbat at 60 Bailey Ave., Manchester, NH.
• Sunday, April 9, 2023: Calvary Chapel will be hosting “Resurrection Sunday” at 9:30 a.m. at 60 Bailey Ave., Manchester, NH, and First Fruits Ministries has been invited to attend. We know “Resurrection Sunday” as “First Fruits,” for Yeshua is our First Fruits (Read 1 Corinthians 15:20-23), and He indeed rose from the dead on this day. First Fruits is traditionally a day to do charitable work in honor of the Lord. You are invited to do such work after service. First Fruits is NOT a holy convocation day and you are NOT required to take off of work or congregate; however, we encourage you to come for fellowship with our brothers and sisters at Calvary Chapel. The “counting of the Omer” begins on First Fruits, which launches a 50-day countdown to the Shavuot/Pentecost celebration.
• Wednesday, April 12, 2023: Seventh Day of Unleavened Bread (This is a Sabbath Day, starting at sundown the night before. You should take off of work on April 12): We will congregate at 11:30 a.m. at 60 Bailey Ave., Manchester, NH, and plan to begin the live-streamed Corner Fringe Ministries service at 11:45 a.m. At 2 p.m., we will enjoy Oneg until 4 p.m. We will not have a First Fruits service this day.
• Saturday, April 15, 2023: Regular Shabbat 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. service at 60 Bailey Ave., Manchester, NH.
