Psalm 122
1I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the LORD.
2Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem.
Isaiah 62
6I have set watchmen upon thy walls, O Jerusalem, which shall never hold their peace day nor night:
ye that make mention of the LORD, keep not silence,
7And give him no rest, till he establish, and till he make Jerusalem a praise in the earth.Psalm 122:6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: may they prosper who love you.
The Machol Dancers resumed their Israeli Folk Dance classes in February 2012 after a two month break during November and December of 2011. The first class was small as we started making plans for three performance pieces for 2012 and worked on some dances we've not practiced in a while. February 7, 2012
During 2012 Beit Yeshua continued it's Erev Shabbat Home-Group meetings in Lincolnton, NC - rotating between Doug & Lynda's home and Chuck & Janice's home. Chuck & Janice moved into their new home in February 2012
Toward the end of 2011 the decision was made to incorporate a conversational Hebrew class at the beginning of the home-group meeting. To accomplish this we decided to push back the start of the meeting to 7:30 pm in order to add the 30-minute Hebrew class at the beginning of the evening. Those with an interest in learning more of the language arrived prior to 7:00 pm and the rest of the group arriving prior to 7:30. We started off with about 20 in the class with Carolyn serving as facilitator and instructor.

Beit Yeshua gathered on Friday March 9, 2012, to celebrate their 11th annual Purim Celebration.

The 2012 Shpiel (play) is called "Shushan Island" and is a Gilligan's Island parody of the Purim story. With 70+ in attendance, it was a fun evening for all.
