We have arrived! Today we was our first actual tour day. We visited the Church of St. Peter Primacy, Church of the Multiplication of the Loaves and Fishes, the Jordan River, Beit Shen, and we took a cruise on the Sea of Gallilee. We are a little tired. It's been a tremendous experience seeing the places that we have heard in sermons or heard from our Sunday School teacher. Our tour guide has been incredible! She not only knows a great deal about the land, but she is also able to bring out deep theological truths to bring the land to life. She calls the land the "fifth Gospel". I like that. Everyone is in great spirits and we have enjoyed getting to know each other on this journey. Tomorrow, we head for Jerusalem. I am not sure when we will be able to Blog again, but keep yourselves posted! We wish you were here, and look foward to sharing with you all the deep spiritual truths that we have shared with one another. God bless and we are keeping you all in our prayers. Shalom!
