Update for: Panama City Beach, Florida

Greetings to all prospective feastgoers coming to Panama City Beach, Florida for the fall Feast of Tabernacles 2012,

The Feast of Tabernacles is the most joyous and satisfying time of the year, measured by the time we brethren have to spend together, sharing ourselves and caring for each other. We also look forward to being spiritually fed through the messages that we will hear during the full eight days of the Feast and Last Great Day of the Feast.

The minstry is also looking forward to preparing and delivering the most helpful, uplifting, and inspiring messages for the feast. We plan for our messages ahead of time and also have a couple of meetings regarding what they're about. As we know, not every message is the outstanding one we might like personally, but Jesus Christ knows what we need and He will make up the difference for us. That takes faith in Christ as Head of His church and Head of you and me. We ministers pray and fast about what we're going to prepare and deliver and we ask you to pray for us as well.

All is going well in our preparation for the Feast in Panama City Beach (hereafter, PCB). All feast site amenities have been sent in to Home Office and ready to be printed in the 2012 Festival Planner. We are also working on our activities schedule, which includes the schedule of services and all other complimentary services linked to the schedule for each day of the feast. We're planning a family day activity and a family dance. Our family dance last year included the entire family and it was a tremendous success in PCB. The room held approximately 300 people and it was full all evening long. I heard more good comments about the family dance than any other activity. We'll also have teen and young adult hospitality times, so the teens and young adults can get to know one another. As always, we'll have Bible studies for adults, young adults, and teens, as it stands now. We are planning a golfing tournament on Sunday afternoon, which will be done before the high Sabbath.

That's it for now. Please pray that all goes well in the preparation and fulfillment of the Feast in PCB this fall. Please also pray that feast preparation and fulfillment goes well at all of our feast sites, around the world.

All the best,

Jerold Aust

PCB Feast Coordinator, 2012
