Shalom Y’all!
The new moon was sighted from Israel this evening, April 17, 2018!
The first day of the first month of the year will be from Sunset on Tuesday, April 17th – Wednesday, April 18th 2018!
Sighted In: Jerusalem, Israel
Sighted On: Tuesday, April 17th, 2018
Sighted By: Devorah Gordon, Anthony Garcia, Shani Ramer, Harold Tarter, and Gil Ashendorf, Willie Ondricek and several other witnesses In Israel….
Month: This is the first Biblical Hebrew month, also known as Aviv or Nissan!
Since this is the first month of the year according to the scriptures, we know that the Passover is quickly approaching! We will count 14 days till Passover!
Here is a quick run down of the Spring feast of Passover and Unleavened Bread!
*Please Note: ALL holy days begin the evening before!
Passover/Pesach: Tuesday, May 1st
Days of Unleavened Bread/Chag HaMatzot- Wednesday, May 2nd -Tuesday, May 8th
Thank you to all the people who faithfully look for the moon each month, and send in their reports! We appreciate your service in helping us all be on time for Our Creator’s appointments!
Make this month a great month, and we pray for a blessed Passover and Spring holy day season!
Abundant Blessings,
Brother Mark Harris

You shall be accountable for every idle (teaching) word. How did the Israelites “check the barley” during the 40 years in the desert? If you teach lies, it would be better for you if you taught nothing at all.

I do not believe they were checking the barley. I believe they were determining the equinox and sighting the first New Moon there after.
Thank you so much for all this information is been very helpful to me now each month I will know exactly what’s going on and the fact that it was in Jerusalem that was just totally awesome to me I was a few days off because I listen to what they said was going to be
I’m confused, you say that the Holy Days begin the evening before, so when you say Passover is on May 1, 2018, does that mean it begins just AFTER sundown on April 30, 2018 which would then be May 1?
Also, the moon was sighted on the 17th so is that the first day of the year?
Third, where do I find your other videos? I have not gotten any emails about them from you. I do get the new sightings, so I believe I’m on your mailing list. I would really like to watch your other videos.
Thank you for all the work you do.

Hello Marie,
The New Moon was sighted on the 17th, so therefore that evening started the New Moon and went through the next day, which was the 18th.
The 14th day of the first month does start at sunset on April 30th…
The other videos will be coming soon!
I hope that answered the questions for now….let me know if I can clarify anything else.
Be blessed!
Just had my Passover Sedder on the evening of May 1st as back in the day the lambs would have been slaughtered on the afternoon (technically the 14th) then eaten on the evening (technically the 15th) as the day starts when it gets dark. Glad to find a website that keeps the days according to the ancient path!
We, here in Greenmount, Queensland Australia saw the new moon crescent approximately 8 hrs prior to Jerusalem on the evening ending 17th April. We observed it in the western sky at 6:30pm Australian Eastern Standard time. It is amazing how Yehovah God has set the rotation of the “heavenly bodies” in motion.
Thank you for sending your Jerusalem reports to us, we appreciate it very much. We are studying the equinoxes at the moment. This is something very new for us to consider. Bye for now Jo & Arnold
Thank you so much for the information. It is a great help
Shalom brother Mark,

Together with you we are looking forward for the coming feasts, but most of all, for our meeting with our Adon Yeshua HaMashiach…we expect that moment very soon!

Yes, Sir! Thank you for your desire to learn! I am working on doing just that!!! I have a new Video coming out soon! There has been some difficulty getting it done in a more timely manner, but I am working on it, and hopefully it will be out for everyone here soon!
This is not really a comment, it is a question. I know some have already had Passover/Unleavened Bread. May I ask (because I want to understand not argue), how did you determine that this was the new year and not last moon sighting. Was it because it was after the equinox? Please explain.

Hello Dorothy, Thank you for your question! 🙂
Simply, yes, the new moon of the month following the 12th month (13th month), was sighted before Spring, therefore there is a 13th month, and the first new moon that is sighted after the spring will be the first month!
