The Tabernacle Experience
at Monte Vista Chapel
October 20 – 29 2023 : 12-7 p.m. daily
What Is The Tabernacle Experience
One step inside the Tabernacle Courtyard will translate you into Old Testament times. You will experience a day in the life of an Old Testament priest as you engage in the duties and rituals within the Tabernacle.
First, you will be ‘clothed’ in the White Linen Garment of the priest. At the Altar of Burnt Offering you will lay your sacrifice on its consuming fire. You’ll approach the Laver and wash your hands in preparation for the work of The LORD. At the Lampstand you’ll light an oil lamp and participate in Communion at The Table of Bread. The smoke rising at The Altar of Incense will heighten your senses and remind you that your prayers ascend to the very throne of God. As you draw back the Curtain and enter The Most Holy Place your journey will culminate before the Ark of The Covenant and The Mercy Seat. The truth within the Tabernacle is life changing. The Tabernacle Experience is a tangible, multi-sensory encounter that will stir your emotions and faith in the person of Jesus Christ.
The narrated journey through the Tabernacle Experience is individual, private and intimate. The Tabernacle Experience is simple, yet utterly profound. The LORD’S profound Love, Compassion and Mercy towards us is evident in every aspect of The Tabernacle. His plan for our redemption is revealed and His desire to live among us is evident.
