Sukkot

Wednesday is the first day of Sukkot, the Feast of Tabernacles. In a great all age service The children & some adults built a hut in the middle of the church this morning.

Sukkot is observed at the end of September or beginning of October, from the 15th to the 22nd of Tishri. During this time many Jewish families construct a sukkah (סֻכָּה), a small hastily built hut in which meals are eaten throughout the festival. The sukkah is used to remember the huts [plural: sukkot] Israel lived in during their 40 year sojourn in the desert after the exodus from Egypt. Sukkot, Feast of Tabernacles
