Announcing a Feast to Love, a Feast to Remember!
Bella Vista — Lake Palestine, TX
September 28th – October 5th
You’ve waited all year to celebrate the 2015 Feast of Tabernacles with Christian Educational Ministries (CEM). Ask anyone who joined us last year for the Feast. They will tell you it was awesome! We’ve searched high and low to find the perfect venue for you to worship, enjoy, and rejoice.
For eight days in the fall of the year, Christians in our tradition pause to celebrate the “Feast of Tabernacles.” It reminds us of an important part of God’s plan and the work and ministry of Christ as we look forward to his reign upon the earth—a glorious time for all mankind.
We worship, rest, play, and learn together. Every day we worship and glorify God in song, pray, and learn more about Scripture. Everyone’s welcome and no prior reservations are required. There will be enjoyable activities for all ages, many opportunities for fellowship, and fun-filled classes for the kids. Sermons from gifted speakers will uplift, encourage, and educate you. Come and keep the Feast with us. Come and worship for one day or eight, but come. You will grow deeper in the grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
We have good news! God has led us to Bella Vista: the former CGI facility right on beautiful Lake Palestine. Having been built for a church, it’s perfectly designed for our program! A wonderful auditorium, plenty of classrooms for seminars and fun-filled YEA classes are provided.
Bella Vista offers a fully-equipped kitchen providing exactly what we need to serve two delicious meals a day for the brethren who share this Feast with us. Being waterfront, it gives a perfect place for the family picnic, swimming, boating, fishing, and other water sports—bring your boat and swimsuit. Families and teens will love this location! It would have been difficult for God to have blessed us with a more perfect place:
- a more perfect place to worship Him
- to enrich our knowledge of God
- to bond with brethren
- to enjoy specially designed activities you’ll enjoy and long remember
- at such an affordable price.

CEM has negotiated specially-priced housing to meet any budget and make your Feast affordable. Whether alone or in a large group, your needs can be met.

SERMONS
We’re putting together a list of our best speakers for this year’s Feast. These sermons will inspire you to greater heights in your walk with Christ. You will add to your Bible knowledge. Each sermon will help you grow in grace and knowledge of our Lord, Jesus Christ. These speakers will be published as soon as this schedule is finalized.
ACTIVITIES
The Bella Vista provides the best place for the family picnic. We don’t have to leave the premises to have a whopping good time. It has the atmosphere and a perfect spot to grill burgers and spread a good picnic meal. Games for kids and adults alike will be waiting for you to participate. To add icing on the cake, it’s waterfront, right on Lake Palestine.
SEMINARS
Again, CEM will offer Christian Living, current events, and practical seminars at the same time as the YEA classes. Drop your kids off for these classes while you attend a seminar of your choice undisturbed by the needs of small children.
YEA CLASSES FOR 5 AGE GROUPS
Bring your kids an hour before services to fun-filled, exciting classes that will teach them about God their Father and the Bible. We don’t lecture your kids, we make learning the Bible fun, exciting, and a challenge.
