Yom HaNafat HaOmer was on 31 March 5784/2024. Yom HaNafat HaOmer begins the 50-day count up to Shavuot (Pentecost). Shavout 2024 is on 19 May 2024 (beginning the evening prior).

In the Ancient Hebrew Wedding ceremony, Shavuot corresponds with the erusin stage (or the Public Betrothal). This is when the engagement between Yeshua and His bride is formally announced (and thus becomes lawfully binding).
