Tuesday Update - News from Israel

The faithful ladies praying for our church, as well as many other things .  As I told them this morning, we heard from travelers yesterday and today!  At Bethany's request we talked to each one of them and although they all sound tired, they all sound really happy.

They are doing very well and loving their time in Israel.  Yesterday, Mom and Shannon went swimming in the Sea of Galilee and all four of them traveled to Mt. Carmel and also to Nazareth.  Today they drove from Capernaum (where they have been staying since they arrived) to Jerusalem. They enjoyed seeing camels wondering through the hills on drive and kept talking about how beautiful it is there. The monastery where they are staying is about 200 yards from the Garden of Gethsemane.  Mom mentioned how much she loves that there is a Bible story coming to life everywhere!
