Hundreds of visitors from the Huntsville community, as well as attendees at the South Central Conference’s 63rd Annual Camp Meeting, have taken the 75-minute tour of the life-sized tabernacle called “Messiah’s Mansion.” Guests are being shown the symbols – altar of sacrifice, laver, table of showbread, altar of incense and candlesticks -- and how each one brings to life events prophesied in the Bible.  The Messiah’s Mansion tour is broken into five sections, each lasting about 15 minutes. Groups as small as 1 and as large as 50 are guided by a tour guide through the symbols and meanings of the sanctuary.
