Hello John and Doves,

A couple more dates to add to the 'Watch List".  The 'watch days' of April have passed - now we are moving on to May/June.

Iyar 25 - Day 40 of the Omer Count - Ascension Day, Holy Thursday, Feast of the Ascension - on this day, Jesus was taken up into the clouds, maybe we will be called up into the clouds on this day!: May sunset 29/sunset 30.

Sivan 6 - Day 50 of the Omer Count - Shavuot - Pentecost:  June 8/9.

Pentecost:  The day the Church was born.  "Fruit of the trees" is judged in Heaven.  Referred to as "A Festival Without a Date."  The Pentecost ceremony is called "Decorating the Bride".  Enoch is believed to have been raptured on Pentecost.  This is the day the early church believed Jesus would return.

Reminder of the end of the 70th year:  Iyar 5 (Day 20 of the Omer Count) is the Hebrew day of Israel's independence.  It will be celebrated on Iyar 3 to Iyar 4, May 8/9, to avoid Sabbath desecration on Iyar 5.  So the last day of the 70th year (2019) will be Iyar 3 to Iyar 4 - as Iyar 5 is the 'official' Hebrew day.  Sunset May 8 to sunset May 9 will be the last day of the 70th year.  Some people are looking at May 14 for the end of the 70th year.

Again, I am using the chabad.org calendar.  Matches better with the calendar Israel uses today. The torahcalendar.com is a month earlier (ex. Shavuot is May 11/12)

Maybe we'll be raptured on one of these 'watch' days...

Matthew 24:43

Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day on which your Lord will come. 43But understand this: If the owner of the house had known in which watch of the night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. 44For this reason, you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour you do not expect.…

And so we watch for His return...

Maranatha!

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!
