Tour of Isreal

My sister Beth left on Tuesday for a trip to Isreal. She was going with her church for a tour around the holy land. She will be going to all of the "tourist" areas as well as the areas made famous by our Lord. She'll be visiting the Sea of Galilee, Dead Sea, Jordan River, Mt. of Olives, Paul's home, and other places visited by Jesus. She has been pretty excited about the trip for months, and I just realized how exciting it must be to go. This will be a touring trip, not missions will be conducted (at least not directly) :)

If you're interested in tracking the trip, the team will be blogging each day and you may visit their site to keep track of her.

We are praying for a blessed time with her team and many safe travels as this land continues to be a target in the war on Terror and can be unsafe at times. But tourism is what keeps this land safe, as this is it's life blood. Please keep her in your prayers and I'm sure she'll have lots to share when she gets back.
