Torah dedication & 2nd anniversary!

Shalom,

The new Torah has been dedicated! What a wonderful service. 7 men of the Congregation carried the Torah around the Congregation for everyone to see and touch.

The Messianic Dance Team then led us in Praise and Worship of Adonai - for pictures see

What a blessing it was!

Thanks to everyone who worked so hard to make this day a reality.

Ark is almost ready

Shalom

This week has been busy with preparation for the 2nd anniversary of Congregation Beth Ha'Mashiach (CBHM) Friday, and the dedication of the new Torah.

Aswritten previously, our new Torah was smuggled out of Germany by a Jewish family fleeing the Nazis. They escaped with little of their earthly belongings, but managed to take the overland route through Turkey to Israel.

When He (Torah) arrived, our sister Congregations new Ark was not ready, so they were still using the Ark theu had graciously donated to Yeshua Ha'Mashiach Ministries (The umbrella Ministry under which CBHM functions). Thus a question, how to properly store & display the Torah?

Solution - with a little hard work, about 50 bucks in supplies and some ingenuity, we were able to transform a curio case into an attactive Ark.

Still need to build the base, mount the interior lights and the eternal light; but all is coming together.

We are all very excited about dedicating the Torah, and with the new Ark, we have a safe, attractive place to display Him until our permeant Ark is available.

Blessings in Yeshua's Name.
