Safe Arrival and Sunday Worship
by Jennie Pakan | March 8, 2020 7:17 AM
After the long day of travel we arrived safely and were welcomed to Israel! We had a short night of rest, but were glad to be in worship this morning with the Israeli church. They had Arabic, Hebrew and English lyrics posted for the worship. "How Great is Our God" Amen!

Lots of Ministry Opportunity
by Doug Washburn | March 9, 2020 1:36 PM
On the bus with Pastor Bishara and his wife, Lubna, sharing about what God is doing in and around Nazareth. They asked us to pray for the new women's ministry which will teach young mothers to read and write and how to manage their households. They have also started a church in a one hundred percent Muslim community. This couple has a passion to spread the light of Jesus with everyone they meet. The highlight of our day was praying for this incredible couple.

Sailing on the Sea of Galilee
by Jennie Pakan | March 10, 2020 6:40 AM
We started the morning with breakfast and devotions. Then, we packed up and headed for the Sea of Galilee. It was an hour on the water, where SO many things happened in Jesus' life! We also had an entertaining host that added lots of fun and played worship music too.

In the River Jordan

In the same river where Jesus was baptized, some of us chose to reaffirm our faith and vows to God. The water was very cold, but we are blessed to be here together.

Deep Fellowship and Sharing
by Jennie Pakan | March 12, 2020 2:38 AM
Last night, here in Jerusalem, our team members shared from the heart and it was very special. Our connection and love for each other and for God was so evident. We have work to do when we get home to keep on passing the torch of faith. We all need people to go before us, people to come alongside us and people to come after us.
