A Long Awaited Update
Hey family, it's Michi! We're EXTREMELY SORRY for slacking off on the blog, but we have been either too busy or too exhausted to update! We just got back this evening from our weekend touring, and I'm surprised that I have enough energy to put this one up!
Since our last post we have been joined by a group from Australia, and have been doing all kinds of work ranging from cataloguing books in a Bible College library, to sweeping up a construction site at a local community center. We have also had several prayer meetings, have done some major gardening, and have visited an orphanage which we plan on visiting again this Friday. This week is also going to be very busy, so would really appreciate your prayers back home. Pray that God would continue to open doors and keep us safe as we go out onto the mission field.
After a long week of hard work, we headed out early Saturday morning to do some touring. We went to Cesarea where we saw the old city, Haifa where we saw Elijah's tomb, Nazareth where we saw the church of Enunciation, and then spent the night on the Sea of Galilee in Tiberias. This morning we went to the mount of Beattitudes where we spent some time in worship and in the Word, Capernaum where we saw ruins of Peter's home and an old synagogue, the Jordan River where some of us were baptized, and then swimming in the Dead Sea. Tired? You bet we are! But we all had a great time and are really looking forward to seeing some more sites next weekend!
I know this has been a pretty vague update, but my brain isn't functioning properly enough to give more details. I hope the pictures say a little more. Anyway, we miss you guys VERY MUCH, and REALLY appreciate all your comments! Keep writing back! God bless!
PS: Mom, Dad, Tito, and Mely: I love and miss you guys SOO much! I'll be trying to get in contact with you some time this week...
