🌿 ENTERING THE JEWISH NEW YEAR — 5787 🌿
From Friday at sunset into Saturday
As the sun sets on Friday, we enter the Jewish New Year, 5787, according to the Hebrew calendar.
This is Rosh Hashanah, the beginning of the Jewish civil year and a significant time in the Jewish calendar for reflection, remembrance, and looking ahead to a new year.
📖 Leviticus 23:23–25 says:
«“In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you shall have a sabbath-rest, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, a holy convocation.”»
This appointed time is known biblically as Yom Teruah — the Feast of Trumpets. In Jewish tradition, this day is celebrated as Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year.
As we enter 5787, may this new year be a time to pause, reflect, give thanks, and examine our hearts before God.
The sound of the shofar reminds us:
📯 WAKE UP.
📯 REMEMBER.
📯 RETURN.
📯 PREPARE.
May we remember God's faithfulness throughout the year that has passed and look toward the year ahead with renewed faith, hope, and expectation.
✨ A NEW YEAR.
A NEW SEASON.
A FRESH OPPORTUNITY TO DRAW CLOSER TO GOD.
May 5787 be marked by repentance, restoration, spiritual awakening, deeper intimacy with God, and a greater desire to walk according to His Word.
Let us not enter this new year merely celebrating the changing of a calendar, but take this opportunity to reflect upon our lives, give thanks to God, and seek His guidance for the season ahead.
📖 “Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.” — Psalm 90:12
As we cross from one year into another, may the Lord go before us, guide our steps, strengthen our faith, and establish the work of our hands.
🍎🍯 SHANAH TOVAH!
May you and your family have a good, blessed, peaceful, and fruitful New Year.
🌿 WELCOME, 5787! 🌿
