Last Night Here

This will be my last post from the Middle East. I hope to post more pictures and reflections on what we did when I return home.

We spent two days up north at the Sea of Galilee and some of the area cities. Our visits reminded us of the many things that Jesus did in that area. One of the cities we visited was Nazareth, the city where our Lord was raised.

One of the joys I had while visiting here is going on a boat ride on the Sea. It was a nice boat and they stopped long enough for us to have a time of prayer and scripture reading together. I had the privileage of leading this time.

Today our bus took us over the northern end of the Sea of Galilee and then along the eastern side of the Sea. From there we crossed the Jordan River and followed it until it flowed into the Dead Sea. In the next couple of days I will post a picture of me floating in the Dead Sea. We also visited the city of Jericho before returning our hotel in Bethlehem.


Tomorrow we leave our hotel at 3:45 AM to catch our flight back to London and then on to New York. It has been a great two weeks and I am so grateful that I was able to come and be apart of this trip.


Thanks for your prayers and I look forward to talking to many of you first hand about what God is doing here.


In HIS Love and Mine,


Jim
