Since our first
Feast of
Tabernacles in 1989, the Mission
has held a physical gathering for the Feast
where people could come and celebrate together
in person. Every year other than a very few,
this gathering has been held at the home of
Maitreya and His family (which,
due to lack of resources, has served as the
Mission Center throughout this
time). This has never been an ideal situation.
How can we do justice to God's great Feast,
which should be a huge and well-organized
spiritual celebration, when we have no Center
other than our home? Furthermore, such
gatherings always involve bringing together many
different energies, especially because we want
the Feast of Tabernacles to be open to all. This
would be no problem, and perhaps give good
lessons for many, at an actual Center;
unfortunately, however, at our home, it has
often made the Feast very disruptive to
Maitreya and His household.
Based on these realities, we have concluded
it has been premature to try and host physical
Feast gatherings at this point in the
Mission's existence, especially now
that the Internet allows us to come together
electronically and broadcast Feast events.
Therefore:
The Mission Center will no longer
host any physical Feast celebration until we
have an actual Center where we can do so
properly and without disruption to Maitreya's
home.
The Feast of Tabernacles page on the website
has been updated to reflect this change. We will
continue to develop an online Feast schedule and
broadcast events over
Paltalk, and disciples can always organize
themselves to come together during this Holy
time.
What this means for you is: If you
want a physical Feast gathering, redouble your
efforts to help the Mission grow and gain a true
Center! Remember: This Mission
is huge and needs people, resources, and effort
to Manifest. Having an actual Center is a basic
step through which we could do so much more,
reach and help so many more people, etc. This
Mission manifesting is not a
matter of "if" but "when," but how long it takes
is up to you (humanity)!
