Trumpets

Recently we spent an evening with friends learning about The Feast of Trumpets.  It was really interesting and we had a lot of fun.

These 3 led us in a few songs.

The youngest children lit a candle each on the Menorah.  Each of the 7 candles are for the Seven Biblical Feast appointed by the Lord.

After dinner we all got to try blowing the Shofar.  It is a horn used on this festival to awaken the slumbering soul, a call to examine ourselves before the Lord.  This long curly one is from a Kudu antelope.
