So good to be home!

July 27, 2009

It is so good to be home after an amazing trip to Israel.  Thank you so much for your prayers and support as we headed to Israel for our mission.  Everyday was awesome!  From the 4 touring days to the 7 mission days, scattered all over Israel.  I loved every moment of it.  Well, maybe [...]

July 26, 2009

We are currently in the Ben Gurion Airport here in Israel and are waiting for our flight to board. It is 3 am here and our flight leaves at 5 am. Most of us have been here since about 8 or 9 pm, so needless to say, we’re all pretty tired of being in an [...]

Team Ashdod, final update :(

July 25, 2009

Today was our last full day with our brothers and sisters in Ashdod.  We went to the beach in the morning and had a ton of fun.  We played football, dodgeball, and baseball (Michael Joo hit a homerun).  We went back to our hostel and cleaned up for the flight and now we will be [...]

Haifa – Friday Update!

July 24, 2009

Friday was a much different day than usual for the Haifa team.  All this week we have been extremely busy with lots of various projects (that is except for the 2 hours that Jerome stopped in to visit… during that time we had nothing to do and looked like slackers!  Haha!)  Anyway, today we got [...]

Haifa – Thursday Update!

July 24, 2009

Thursday was a long and hard day for us as a group, but it was exhilarating to see all that we accomplished at the end. We started the day yesterday with a slightly earlier breakfast than normal so that we could get to our project sites before it got too hot. Once we met up [...]

Nazareth again….

July 24, 2009

What an amazing day we have had in Nazareth. Well, not actually Nazareth. We have spent our entire week in Eilaboun, a small village about 30 minutes from Nazareth. Today was Day 5 of Kids Games and our last day to spend with the children. Instead of coming back to Nazareth for lunch like we [...]

Jerusalem Reflections

July 24, 2009

WOW… I can’t believe that this amazing trip is almost over!! I have had an awesome time getting to know the people with shevet and the kids that they give aid to. It’s hard to think that we will be leaving Jerusalem tomorrow morning. While this is a sad thought, it is also happy because [...]
