Christians Celebrating Shabbat or any other Jewish holidays

Hello my fellow Body of Christ family,

Blessings to all that preach the gospel of Jesus Christ. I was informed that there are some holidays, festivals, or feasts that the Believers should celebrate in commemoration of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Celebrating these special holidays are to provide special blessings for the Believer's life in Christ. Any of the Body of Christ family celebrating any other holidays besides the 'pagan' originated ones? Let's have fun with this one!

The apostle Paul explained this new understanding of the Passover to the Corinthian brethren when he instructed them on how to observe it: "For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you: that the Lord Jesus on the same night in which He was betrayed [Passover night] took bread; and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, ‘Take, eat; this is My body which is broken for you; do this in remembrance of Me.' "In the same manner He also took the cup after supper, saying, ‘This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.' For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord's death till He comes" (1 Corinthians 11:23-26). So in the New Testament, the Passover becomes an annual reminder and symbol of Christ's sacrifice for all of us. With that said....Should we celebrate Pesach (Passover), Shavuot (Pentecost/The Feast of the Weeks), Rosh Hashanah (Memorial of the blowing of the Trumphets, Yom Kippur (The day of Atonement), Succot (Festival of Booths and Tabernacles) or Purim and Hanukkah (All found in Leviticus Ch 23).....?
Everytime, we take communion, we are pretty much doing what Jesus asked. Not necessarily during a certain time frame, but this is what he said: Well, Jesus said a LOT so read Luke chapter 22.
As for me, I am not perfect, but I do my best to try and keep EVERY day HOLY!
