Last Day in the Holy Land
This is our last day. We had free time until 11am which is check out time. Our bus will be here and we will leave around 11:30am to go to the Temple Mount and on to visit Joppa (Jaffa) which I really like, of coure I love any place on the Mediterranean Sea. After that we will have our farewell dinner together and on to the airport.
This morning many of us went back to the Prayer Center and spent time in the Interactive Prayer Room and visiting with some of the workers there. One of the areas in the prayer center that is my favorite shows the many names of our LORD. I wish I had time and space to mention them all. It is wonderful to praise him for being our everything! Praise is where God lives (see Psalm 22:3).
This is another beautiful day, one of the most beautiful of all. It is sunny and will be 70s at Joppa area, feels really warm here this morning as well, so probably close to that here.
We had our last visit with our friend Abraham and I purchased a couple of last minute items from him.
Scotty and I will be back in 5 weeks to volunteer at the Garden Tomb for Easter. We are looking forward to that but not to the flight. Our friend who is the director of the Garden Tomb will be retiring in November so this is a unique and probably one time opportunity for us to come and volunteer for a short time. Most volunteers commit to 3 months.
As I ask yesterday, please pray that all goes well with our flight. We are praying for all the requests that have been shared with us via email and text. Internet access is limited but we can send and receive texts just fine and purchased a plan for that. Text us if you wish, we would be happy to hear from you on our journey home. We stop in NY, Atlanta and then on to Huntsville. Some are worried about getting "stuck" in NY but trusting all will go well. With all that is going on in our world that woudl be a minor problem. Remember in Israel we are 8 hours ahead of you in time.
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and Israel and our world. We know that peace truly only comes from knowing Jesus as Savior!
Many blessings to you all,
