Habanim Street 1 Tiberias, Galilee, Israel, 14103, 4-671-3333

Cana The Cana stop was typical of most of our other stops. Ze'ev gave some historical background. Bishop Serratelli offered some biblical background. Next up was an appropriate scripture reading. Bishop Serratelli followed with his own reflection on the reading. We then had time for personal prayer and reflection. As with most biblical locations, the site of the Cana Wedding Church is approximate. We do not know exactly where Christ turned the water into wine. Tiberias From Cana, we headed to...
Cana and Tiberias, Israel djpickWe started off Wednesday morning with a boat ride across the Sea of Galilee (is that a great way to start the day or what?). It was a beautiful clear morning, the perfect temperature outside, and we walked down to the dock which was right beside our hotel. This boat was operated by Messianic Jews, and they started playing Michael W. Smith worship music as we crossed the lake. About half-way across, the owner switched the music to a Hebrew version of the same worship music that he had recorde...

... of chemicals and preservatives for 12 years and finally put on display in a special climate-controlled room. The boat had been radioactive carbon dated to come from a 100year range 39BC to 69AD (this happens to coincide almost exactly with the earthly life of Yeshua!). The boat is made of exactly 12 different types of wood. After our tour, everyone: Liacham, Addison, and several groups of people left leaving me alone in the climate ...
Tiberias, Galilee, Israel leafmold... site and a shrine built by King Jeroboam almost 3,000 years ago (I Kings 11). We returned to the car cool and refreshed despite the heat. Tel Dan also had great rest room, store, and snack facilities, including my now favorite 5 shekel frozen fruit bar. Now we traveled up towards Mt. Hermon. Here we found a winter ski resort and a great view. We were on a quest to find some awesome lookout site Sarah had gone ...
Tiberias, Galilee, Israel leafmold... and Dave went. We made the 30 minute hike only to find that Becky and Dave weren't there. So, we got ice creams, cold waters and sat in the van cooling off... and eventually falling asleep in the nice air conditioned van. About two and a half hours later, Becky and Dave show up, covered in mud and burnt to a crisp. They did about five miles extra, had to ration water, and used their last drops to mix with dirt to make sunblock. Dave, in his sandals, and Becky ...
Tiberias, Galilee, Israel bekkibyrumsmith... aus Tel Aviv zurueckgekommen, weshalb wir uns gerade fragen, ob wir noch auf sie zaehlen koennen.<br>Meine Arbeitszeiten sind jetzt etwas abwechslungsreicher geworden. Habe ich letzte Woche noch jeden Tag von 14 bis 18 Uhr gearbeitet, bin ich jetzt diese Woche nur drei Mal fuer diese Schicht eingeteilt. Weitere drei Male arbeite ich von 18 bis 22 Uhr, und heute habe ich frei. Hinzu kommt, dass ich mittlerweile zum Nachtmensch mutiert bin und selten vor 3 ...
Nazareth, Israel brisko... a "Thayer/Hertzl Street" and Yarmouk University right there, which looked huge and is apparently famous. I understand that Jordan, a monarchy, is a pretty liberal country as far as Arab countries go. We were told told it's 95% Arab, 5% Christian, and they have a peace treaty signed with Israel. Somewhat related, the Jordanian Dinar is basically equivalent to the Euro, which is interesting. I kept a pretty sweet coin. The plan was to visit Amman the next day ...
Irbid, Jordan salerhandI got to see Haifa, Akko, and Nazareth courtesy of a whirl-wind tour by Eli, Osnat and their 2 lovely daughters . The highlight of Haifa was the panoramic view above the Bahai Temple . Akko (Acre), the ancient port of the Crusaders, has some ancient ruins and clear blue skies .
Haifa, Israel tuktukcharlie... Of course we can't know for sure, but the possibility is thought provoking. We re-boarded the bus and rode to Mount Zion on the South-West side of the city where we disembarked. We visited the traditional site of the "upper room" mentioned several times in the book of Acts. The original room has been destroyed; the one we visited dates to the time of the Crusades, so it is suspect, but it was interesting to consider the possibility that it might be the ...
Megiddo, Israel joelmeeker... and supporters around the world, who have organized a series of Women's prayer groups at the Kotel (Western Wall) each month on Rosh Hodesh. The groups have included women reading from the Torah and wearing tallit, tefillin, and kippot. The Kotel is a central Jewish holy site, part of the retaining wall of the Temple Mount ...
