Ascension Day
2025-05-29 00:00 - 23:59 | Virginia
The Book of Acts begins with the account of Jesus coming to His disciples for a period of 40 days after His resurrection from the grave, after which He ascended into the heavens with the promise to send the Holy Spirit to be with us until the End of Days, when He would return.
The account is recorded in Acts 1:1-11 – 1 The first account I composed, Theophilus, about all that Jesus began to do and teach, 2 until the day when He was taken up to heaven, after He had given orders by the Holy Spirit to the apostles whom He had chosen. 3 To these He also presented Himself alive after His suffering, by many convincing proofs, appearing to them over a period of forty days and speaking of things regarding the kingdom of God. 4 Gathering them together, He commanded them not to leave Jerusalem, but to wait for what the Father had promised, “Which,” He said, “you heard of from Me; 5 for John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now.”
6 So, when they had come together, they began asking Him, saying, “Lord, is it at this time that You are restoring the kingdom to Israel?” 7 But He said to them, “It is not for you to know periods of time or appointed times which the Father has set by His own authority; 8 but you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be My witnesses both in Jerusalem and in all Judea, and Samaria, and as far as the remotest part of the earth.”
9 And after He had said these things, He was lifted up while they were watching, and a cloud took Him up, out of their sight. 10 And as they were gazing intently into the sky while He was going, then behold, two men in white clothing stood beside them, 11 and they said, “Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into the sky? This Jesus, who has been taken up from you into heaven, will come in the same way as you have watched Him go into heaven.”

Yom HaAtzma'ut - Israel's Independence Day
2025-05-01 00:00 - 23:59 | Virginia
This is the day that Israel commemorates and celebrates their national independence. The actual day that Israel declared their independence was the 5th day of the Month of Iyyar on the Jewish calendar. The 1st day of May (which in 2025 is actually the 3rd day of Iyyar) was chosen as the official holiday to establish the same day each year on the more widely used Gregorian calendar.
The Day of Independence for Israel has great significance to Biblical End Times prophesies.
Here is a webpage with some of the most significant Biblical passages that speak to End Times prophesy:

This is also Yom HaShoah, the Day of Holocaust Remembrance for the Jewish people, the 27th day of the month of Nisan on the Jewish calendar (commemorated on the 26th Day of Nisan for 2025). It was chosen because it is the midpoint between the first day of Passover, which was the date of the Warsaw Uprising, and Yom Hazikaron, the day that Israel remembers their fallen soldiers, the 4th day of the month of Iyyar on the Jewish calendar.
