In 1990, we went on the Mediterranean cruise for the Feast of Tabernacles.\u00a0 Over one thousand attended.\u00a0 This cruise began in Venice, Italy, went to Greece, and to several of the churches of Revelation 2 & 3.<\/p>\n

Here are photos of Venice, the cruise ship, many there, and the isthmus of Corinth:<\/p>\n

Additional photos at or related to that 1990 Feast are included in Joyce’s Photos of Corinth<\/a>, Joyce’s Photos of Ephesus<\/a>, Joyce’s Photos of Pergamos<\/a>, and Joyce’s Photos of Smyrna<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In 1991, we went to Victoria, British Columbia (Canada).\u00a0 Over 1,000 (perhaps 2,000 or more) attended.\u00a0 Below is a picture of Victoria Harbor and the children’s choir at the Feast:<\/p>\n

In 1992 was our first trip to the Caribbean and we went to the Bahamas.\u00a0 Over 500 attended.\u00a0 Below is the children’s choir, as well as the view from our hotel room of the tip of Paradise Island:<\/p>\n

In 1993, we went to Eastbourne, England for the Feast of Tabernacles.\u00a0 Around 1500 attended that year.\u00a0 Below is a picture of Eastbourne, as well as a castle not too far from the city:<\/p>\n

In 1994, we went to Eugene, Oregon for the Feast of Tabernacles.\u00a0 Over 1000 seemed to be in attendance.\u00a0 While there we visited\u00a03-4 places of historical interest to the old Worldwide Church of God (some photos of two of those are included in the articles 6. The Philadelphia Church Era<\/a>\u00a0and The Feast of Tabernacles: A Time for Christians?<\/a>)–what struck me was that no one other than us was ever at any of those places.\u00a0\u00a0This was our last year at a Worldwide Church of God feast site.\u00a0 The first picture is a welcome to Oregon, while the second is near Florence Oregon:<\/p>\n

In 1995, we attended our first Feast of Tabernacles site outside the Worldwide Church of God.\u00a0 The Global Church of God site we attended was in Del Mar, California.\u00a0 Around 700 were in attendance.\u00a0 It is near San Diego.\u00a0 The first picture is in Del Mar, while the second is of San Diego:<\/p>\n

In 1996, we attended the Feast of Tabernacles in Penang, Malaysia.\u00a0 About 70 attended.\u00a0 We were one of only 2 American families there.\u00a0 This was the first feast site I spoke at (I gave two sermonettes).<\/p>\n

In 1997, we attended the feast in Hengelhoef, Belgium.\u00a0 Several hundred were in attendance.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In 1998, we attended the feast in Branson, Missouri.\u00a0 At this site, Dr. Meredith and I became better acquainted, which helped when the Global Church of God crisis erupted the next month.\u00a0 The second picture is from a place called “the Holy Land” and is a short drive away in Arkansas:<\/p>\n

In 1999, we attended the feast in Anchorage, Alaska.\u00a0 This was the first time my wife or I ever attended the same feast site more than once.\u00a0 However, it was different than the previous time (1982) and there was a significant reduction in the sizes of the glaciers I remembered from the prior visit.<\/p>\n

The Feast of Tabernacles: A Time for Christians?<\/a> Is this pilgrimage holy day still valid? Does it teach anything relevant for today’s Christians?<\/p>\n
