We would like to be more faithful in honoring the biblical feasts...we currently try to keep Passover, and would be interested in starting others.

I currently keep the 3 main Feast in West Central Mo. with a textile group.
Pentecost, a 1 or 2 day feast will be May 30th this year.
If you are interested let me know.
Freezie Pete,
I've never heard of Biblical Feasts. What do they entail? And are you just talking food or ceremony and food?

Most Jewish Synogogues keep the Lord-mandated and traditional feasts. The big feasts of the year are Rosh HaShanah in the fall, Purim in the winter/spring, and Passover/ Pesach in the spring. Other ceremonial days of importance are Yom Kippur (the holiest day of the year), Shavuot/ Pentacost, and Chanukah. If you are a Christian who recognizes or would like to recognize these holidays I highly recommend becoming part of a Messianic Jewish synogogue. This allows you to express your faith in Messiah Jesus/ Yeshua while keeping the Biblical feasts and Jewish traditions. I've greatly enjoyed being a part of my local Messianic Jewish congregation.

I, too, have experienced Passover and Chanukah feasts (from a Messianic perspective). Although Paul's letters make it clear that Gentile Christians are not obligated to keep all the feasts, there is much joy in doing so.
It would be a wonderful experience to celebrate Passover in the nude, with footwashing, as Jesus instituted.
Hallelu haShem Yeshua haMashiach! (Let us praise the name of Jesus Christ!)

Jochanaan,
I had a Passover Seder at my house once. Had a lot of friends over. Word of warning: we had a hard time eating up all the lamb, come hungry! Also hyssop is very hard to find. You might have to grow your own, starting in the previous year. The lamb had enough blood that we were able to put it on the door posts using sprigs of rosemary as a substitute brush. No one died that night!
We used store-bought matzoh bread. It was pretty good, but maybe someday I will make my own.
I didn't bother with gefilte fish, or making matzoh ball soup. The bitter herbs were a nice garnish. We had kosher horseradish, parsley and then for sweet made an apple/nut mix.
You would be surprized how much leaven is in your house. It took me a long time to find it all and get rid of it.
We prayed and read the passage in Exodus chapter 12. If you have a good Haggadha booklet it helps when you have a big gathering and want to help keep everyone focused on the spiritual side of things.
Shalom!

All 12/13 tribes are to keep the FEAST, not just the Jews. Recently the Jews have been more faithful in honoring OUR HEAVENLY FATHERS command to keep the FEASTS. The Jews also have other non-biblical feast that they keep. To properly keep the Feast you have to go by the Old and the New Testaments.
The three main feast that all Israelite men are commanded to keep are Passover/Unleaven bread - 8 days, Pentecost - 1 day it will be May 23 this year and Tabernacle/Last Great Day - 8 days in the Fall. (Exodus 23:14-14; Deuteronomy 16:16).
Yes, we can wash each other feet girded with only a towel. We can also do Simon Peter?s hands and head. (John 13:9).
Paul can expand on OUR HEAVENLY FATHER?S word, but he can?t change it. The FEAST are forever. At the cross CHRIST only replaced Animal sacrifice.
Read Exodus chapter 12, Leviticus chapter 23 and Deuteronomy chapter 16.
