In light of the current challenges facing the Jesus Cares 2020 Community Kitchen, I believe it is important that we commit everything into the hands of God while we continue to navigate the logistics using the wisdom, knowledge, and resources He has entrusted to us. Join us the last Friday of the month in person or online. Details: https://hallel.info/locations/jesus-cares-2020-community-kitchen/
These monthly meetings the second Sunday evening of the month are intended to discuss what's working and not at Hallel Fellowship, and where we're headed next. The goal is to have a meeting agenda out a week before, so you can pray over the items.
The Zoom meeting link and call-in details are the same as those used for the weekly Bible study (see the About Us tab on the Hallel smartphone app).

The LORD's appointed times are based from the beginning of each lunar month. Learn more about the biblical basis for the monthly reminder of the New Moon.
Hallel Fellowship gathers for a time of Scripture and prayer at the beginning of each Hebrew month.
Month of forgiveness: A tradition calls for the sixth month (aka Elul) to start a 40-day period of teshuvah (repentance/turn) leading up to Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement). This can be a time of reflection and seeking reconciliation for wrongs not forgiven. Recent tradition calls for reading Psalm 27 daily and reflection on the 13 attributes of Adonai in Exodus 34:6-7 in the last week.

This week’s Torah reading
- Spiritual detox: What the Bible really says about breaking free from toxic patterns (Leviticus 22–23; Zechariah 14; Colossians 2)Detoxing from sin more than personal. It’s cosmic. This study connects Leviticus 23, the Shema prayer (Deuteronomy 6), Zechariah 14, and Colossians 2 to show how God’s “appointments” detox both spiritual leaders and everyday people from toxic habits, false religion, and spiritual distractions. Discover how unleavened bread, the Sabbath, and the festivals of the LORD all point to the Messiah as our ultimate detox, restoring us from slavery to freedom and leading us back toward the garden of God’s presence.
