Going to the Holy Land!
I am kicking off the new year with an incredible trip. I’m headed to the Holy Land for two weeks!
I’ve never been, and I can’t wait to spend time in the places where Jesus lived, taught, performed miracles, died, was buried, and rose again.
Many people who have visited the Holy Land have told me that there is something about the experience that goes much deeper than you would expect. I hope to discover that for myself.
Follow along on Facebook or Instagram for (mostly) daily highlights and insights. I will be sharing my journey, and want to take you along with me. I will share some of the highlights here in mid-February, but the daily details will be on Facebook and Instagram.
I will be praying for you all along the way. The sites I will visit are listed below. Email me to let me know your prayer intention and where you would like me to pray for you. I will keep them confidential, and I hold it as a high honor to be able to pray for you.
Please pray for me and for the people I am traveling with. May God’s grace pour into our hearts and help us to come closer to Him. May our journey help others to discover the beauty of their faith.
