The Journal lists Feast of Tabernacles sites for 2004

Also view Feast of Tabernacles sites for 2005!

These are the Feast of Tabernacles sites for 2004 The Journal was aware of at press time. Information for the listing comes fromwww.olivebranches.net , Servants' News, other Web sites and information sent directly to The Journal by Feast organizers and Journal readers.

Unless otherwise stated, each listing represents a Feast observance beginning Wednesday evening, Sept. 29, and continuing through Thursday, Oct. 7 (referred to as the Last Great Day or Great Last Day in many Churches of God).

Below are some of the abbreviations used for the Feast list. Note that some phone numbers refer to a church's headquarters in the United States rather than a local Feast contact.

  • CGIC = Church of God an International Community (Pasadena, Calif)
  • CGI = Church of God International (Tyler, Texas)
  • ICG = Intercontinental Church of God (Tyler, Texas)
  • LCG = Living Church of God (Charlotte, N.C.)
  • PCG = Philadelphia Church of God (Edmond, Okla)
  • UCG = United Church of God an International Association (Milford, Ohio)
  • WCG = Worldwide Church of God (Pasadena)

The Journal invites and encourages Feast organizers and sponsors to furnish information for this listing, which will run until Feast time.

A note on the dates: When submitting your information, please include the dates beginning with the day on the Gregorian calendar of your first evening's observance. For example, if the first full day of your eight-day observance will be Sept. 30, the dates of your Feast site for this listing would be Sept. 29 to Oct. 7 (parts of nine days on the Gregorian calendar).

 

A note on attendance policies: Most of the Feast sites listed here have an open attendance policy; that is, visitors are welcome. However, it is The Journal's understanding that some Church of God organizations--for example, the CGIC and PCG--allow Feastgoers to attend with them only by special permission. Therefore, if you wish to attend one of those churches' Feast sites, The Journal recommends that you first contact the sponsoring church or its representative.
