Dear Brethren,

Here is the information packet for the Feast of Tabernacles 2011. Listed below are the major Feast sites for 2011. In addition to these, there will be many smaller Feast sites scattered across the USA. Please carefully follow the instructions.

Please be sure to return the Feast Information Sheet as soon as possible.

Each one is responsible to make his or her own reservations. In all locations, please mention that you are with the Christian Biblical Church of God, because in most cases we have been given special rates. Remember that the Feasts of God are as important as the weekly Sabbath. Moreover, through keeping them year by year, we are able to learn and understand more about God’s plan as revealed in the Bible. We pray that this years Feast will be the best ever for you and your family.

General Feast Information: We need your help. Over the years it has been our policy to let people go wherever they wanted and change their mind as often as they like. Some even wait until a few days before the opening night of the Feast before making housing reservations. However, such late decisions make planning most difficult. Please let us know where you will attend as soon as possible, so we can fulfill our contractual obligations of guaranteed minimums.

Additional Information for Orlando, Florida

Welcome to Wekiwa Springs State Park

This Florida State Park is located less than ten miles northwest of the Embassy Suites Hotel site where CBCG is keeping the 2011 Feast of Tabernacles. I recommend it very highly. There is a $4 - 6 entrance fee. (Below copied from a Florida State Parks description.) Ray King

“Welcome to Wekiwa Springs State Park. Located at the headwaters of the Wekiva River, the beautiful vistas within this park offer a glimpse of what Central Florida looked like when Timucuan Indians fished and hunted these lands. Just one hour from most central Florida attractions, Wekiwa Springs offers visitors the opportunity to relax in a natural setting, enjoy a picnic, or take a swim in the cool spring. Canoeists and kayakers can paddle along the Wekiva River and Rock Springs Run. Thirteen miles of trails provide opportunities for hiking, bicycling, and horseback riding. This is a very popular park on weekends. To ensure entrance into the park, we recommend arriving early, otherwise, the parking area will be full and you may not be able to enter. Options for camping include a full facility campground and primitive camping areas. Canoe and kayak rentals are available.”

David Obey, our UK office manager, has sent the the following information about the CBCG feast of Tabernacles in Northern Ireland.  We’ve booked # 4 Ballycanal Cottages, 5 Station Road, MOIRA, County Down, BT67 0NE in Northern Ireland for the place to hold CBCG services during the Feast of Tabernacles 2011.  There are four other cottages in the terrace still available during the Feast dates and accommodations can also be obtained in Moira itself, which is only a 10 minute walk away. For further information please email David at: dave.obey@talk21.com.

As we have grown in recent years, we have increased the number of Festival sites. Every year we have sites closer and closer to where brethren live. This way it is more convenient for you to travel in order to keep the Feast of Tabernacles. May God bless you in every way, so that this year’s Feast will be the best ever for you and your family!
