Help, I've fallen and I can't get up...

...fallen way behind in posting pictures, that is. Fact is, just to get one picture posted here at the Notre Dame takes entirely too long to do much. So for the rest of the trip, you are going to get a photographer's pick (maybe or two) for each day. You will unfortunately have to wait until we get home for the slideshows. We do thank you for your prayers and for your patience as I know you want to see your loved ones and what we are up to each day. Things are going very well and God has been so good, but we do miss you all! Blessings in Christ!

June 13: Today we went to Bethlehem. Among many other things, we went into the grotto at the Church of the Nativity where Jesus is thought to have been born. Our guide, Bader, is telling us about the star on the floor in one location and the manger in another.

Another cool thing from today was going to see Bethlehem Bible College and meet THE Brother Andrew (God's Smuggler... on the left). The president of the Bible College is on the right.

June 12: Several from our group went to the Wailing Wall to watch as the Jewish youth bring in Shabbat (Sabbath).
Some of our group may still be waiting for the big "It."

June 11: A view of Jerusalem from the Mount of Olives.

June 10 was a travel day from Galilee to Jerusalem... and Tom knows Maritima's the spot.

June 10: those, my friends, are mustard seeds. Cool, eh?

June 9 was a free day. Brian enjoyed a toast along with some deer meat and chicken for a late lunch with a few Jewish men over by the spring at Primacy of Peter.

June 8: One of the coolest things we did today was eat lunch with Arab Christian brothers and sisters from Cana, Nazareth, and surrounding areas, followed by a tourist trap presentation and finally a wonderful time of prayer for our new friends.
