Biblical Feasts: Key Dates for 2026
Unlike holidays, where the dates usually fall at the same time every year, Holy Days are not set dates. I always have to check the Jewish calendars as the Biblical Feasts vary according to certain signs like cycles of the moon and sun, which I have no way to accurately calculate. The dates can vary, depending on the calendar you use, as the Jewish dates usually begin at sundown the day before.
In Leviticus 23, the Feasts are mentioned, and there are numerous other mentions of them in the Bible. God has sent out our invitations, so we should accept them and celebrate these Feasts in gratitude for all that HE has done for us.
Here are the specific dates for the main festivals of the year:
- Passover (Pesach): April 1 – 9, 2026
- Feast of Unleavened Bread (Chag HaMatzot): April 1 – 9, 2026
- Feast of First Fruits (Shavuot): May 21 – 23, 2026 (often considered Pentecost)
- Feast of Trumpets (Rosh Hashanah): September 11 – 13, 2026
- Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur): September 20 – 21, 2026
- Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot): September 26 – October 2, 2026
- Feast of the Eighth Day (Shemini Atzeret): October 2 – 3, 2026
You may notice that the Feasts fall in two different seasons, Spring and Fall. These also coincide with harvest times. Below are some of the links to posts that we have made for the individual Feasts:

Recipes of the Month: January 2026
I will try to post a few recipes that should be fairly budget-friendly and easy to make for anyone wanting to learn to make things from scratch.
I wasn’t sure what recipe to start with, but since January 4th is National Spaghetti Day, I figure that would be a good one to start with.
Special Holiday Meals: January Edition
Spaghetti is a pretty simple meal to make, and I have a couple of recipes that you could try. There is nothing wrong with boxed noodles and canned sauce, but these don’t need a lot of skill and can turn an ordinary meal into something special… even making a few additions like some browned meat to canned sauce can make it so much better.
With Valentine’s Day coming up next month, you might want to try out a couple of recipes so you can make a memorable meal for your special someone 😉
Embracing a Slower Pace: Simple Habits for a PEACEful Year
Hey everyone, I hope you are all doing well. We are coming out of a cold spell here, and happy to see some warmer temperatures. We have not set any New Year’s resolutions as we want to develop some lasting habits and routines that help draw our family closer. We will continue to work on routines that we have established, while adding new ones slowly.
I have a lot of plans for our family, home, and blog this year, and I pray that GOD will lead me in a way that I can inspire others and help them to create some simple habits that lead to a peaceful year. We will be focusing more on intentional living, making rest more of a priority, and creating a more peaceful rhythm for our family.
