Thursday, March 31 Update

We have just finished a full and exciting day of touring.  We began the day in Caesarea where Peter visited Cornelius and the Holy Spirit came to the Gentiles (Acts 10).  We also climbed Mount Meggido, viewing some remains from the time of Soloman's reign.  This spot overlooks the Jezreel Valley, a portion of which is called Armageddon (Rev. 16).  What an experience to stand and overlook such a peaceful and beautiful valley, trying to visualize some of the battles fought there and the final one to come.  We finished with a visit to Nazareth on the opposite side of the valley, a city now but an obscure village at the time of our Lord's birth, one more reminder of the humble condescension of our Sovereign Savior.  We arrived to our current hotel on the Sea of Galillee exhausted but with our souls magnifying the Lord!

Tomorrows highlights include several of our team members being baptized in the Jordan River!

Thank you for your ongoing prayers.  The team is doing well, mostly adjusted to the new time zone.

Arrival!

We arrived safely in Tel Aviv this afternoon, then took a one hour bus ride north to Caesarea where we wtinessed a beautfiul sunset on the Mediterranean.  We've checked into our hotel in Caesarea and are preparing for dinner, then our first group meeting and sharing time.  Then a good night of rest before a full day on Thursday, visiting Mount Carmel, Megiddo and Nazareth, just to name a few.  We are grateful for the answered prayers for our safe travel and appreciate the continued prayers that this would be a life changing journey for each of us!

The Journey Begins!

Approximately 70 people will depart on Tuesday, March 29 for a life-changing tour of the Holy Land, led by Dr. John H. Munro.  We will be posting  regular updates throughout this amazing experience, so be sure to check in occasionally.  We covet your prayers for safety in travelling and good health, as we shine the Light of Jesus Christ while walking closely in His steps.
