It's a dream come true for me (Guy) - we're going to Israel! We are leaving (on a jet plane) March 18th and returning April 24th.I have long had it on my heart to go to Israel - but "lama?, lama?" why?
Is 40:1-2, " "Comfort, O comfort My people," says your God. Speak kindly to Jerusalem; And call out to her, that her warfare has ended, That her iniquity has been removed, That she has received of the LORD'S hand Double for all her sins."
Our friends have a house church in Israel, so we will be serving them and encouraging them. We hope to using counseling skills we have learned and hope to give the leaders a little vacation! Of course we'll tour the land and see where it all began!
There is a lot to do to get ready! We are making all the arrangements necessary to leave our house on 10 acres in the woods, our dog, 3 cats and 4 chickens. And we've had to do financial things like pay income and property taxes and have all other bills on automatic payments.
So the excitement and nervousness increases as we approach the day of our departure! We'll keep you posted on all our adventures as we walk the Holy Land! =)
