2022 Feast of Tabernacles
Santa Cruz, Bolivia
From the beginning, the Terranova Hotel in Santa Cruz, Bolivia, provided us with the space we needed to carry out our activities. Many said it was the best Feast we have had in recent times.
We watched all the scheduled videos that were sent to us from the home office, regarding the welcome sermons and the sermon of our president, Rick Shabi. We also followed the messages of our senior pastor, Mario Seiglie. We had three Bible studies, two of them related to the tabernacle in the desert and its relationship with Jesus Christ. Then we had a study of the universe with a mathematical analysis of how we are going to participate in the future, when our King of kings will establish His Kingdom on the earth, where we are going to participate as active members of His family.
We had the baptism of Luis Daniel Mora Salazar, a member from Lima, Peru. After the ceremony we welcomed him to the Church with a nice toast. Later, the children enjoyed the pools in the warmth of a splendid sun.
As the Bible states, (Leviticus 23:40. Nehemiah 8:14-17) we rejoiced with delicious meals accompanied by tasty wines and seasonal juices. We were all happy and very glad to have accepted God’s invitation to celebrate the Feast in the place where He put His name this year. We also took advantage of an evening for the children and some of the older members to sing their favorite songs through karaoke.
During our stay, we visited a mall where we ate ice cream and went bowling. We also visited a beautiful place called La Rinconada Ecoparque. It is an ecological park full of lagoons, waterfalls, tropical water lilies, a great variety of trees, plants, fish and nice aquariums. This outdoor recreational area was a pleasure to visit, because it resembles a paradise.
We have returned to our homes, very grateful to our God and Father for having given us the opportunity to continue growing, improving our understanding and knowledge, through the meaning of the plan that God created for humanity.
