2025 Feast of Tabernacles: Branson, Missouri

Over 650 members kept the Feast in Branson, Missouri. More than 100 children attended, and many had the opportunity to learn about racing for the Kingdom of God during two days of youth instruction. The teenagers participated in a Bible study, a drop-in social and an activity at Snowplex, a downhill ski slope with artificial snow. A young adult Bible study was conducted by Keith Wilson followed by lunch at Branson Landing which included bowling.

Family day was held at Table Rock State Park, and was organized by Fred Nance and the Little Rock Arkansas congregation. The activities included plenty of food, fellowship and games for all.

The seniors enjoyed a luncheon on Sunday morning with great fellowship, highlighted by impromptu musical performances by several seniors in attendance.

Randy Urwiller presented a Bible study on the book of Habakkuk showing how the prophet repeatedly warned his countrymen to repent of their sins and the nation of Judah stubbornly refused to change. The study showed what Habakkuk teaches us about faith during difficult times as we follow Christ’s admonition to seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness.

Keith Wilson presented a Bible talk on how modern science looks at man and compares man to the “other animals” and finds no explanation for the gap. Only God’s Word reveals the mystery of man and the amazing destiny God intends for all mankind.

Members were treated to wonderful special music by the festival choir, children’s choir, octets and various solos during services. All of the messages and music were encouraging and reflected the coming Kingdom of God.
