Home safe and sound!

On the left is our Israeli guide, Raouf and on the right our bus driver, Mohammed. Two wonderful and very gracious men. We were blessed to have their guidance and become their friends!

The nine of us made it back to the USA safely today, Sunday, May 24. We arrived JFK International Airport, 6:00 a.m. after a long 12 hour flight all night. We cleared passport control and customs and were the Landis Luxury Coaches van with our driver, Bob, at 7:30 a.m. and were in the Florin COB parking lot at 11:00 a.m. 

We've been reading the mail from the past week, went to the grocery for some necessary items, checked emails, made several phone calls to family, ate some supper and we'll soon be heading to bed for some needed sleep. 

If you're wondering from the last blogs picture of Bev and me in our Dead Sea mud, we did clean up rather nicely and in fact look about 20 years younger! Not really, but it was a nice thought anyway! 

It was a great trip and Bev and I or any of the other 7 pilgrims on this spiritual journey to Israel will be more than happy to share our story (and our pictures of course)!

I'll be around Mount Joy until Friday, May 29 when I'll leave early for Hendersonville, N.C. early in the morning for my planned visit of 3 1/2  weeks. I'll be preaching on Sunday, May 31 at His Way COB and covet your prayers for my preaching and my being engaged with this part of the Christ body while worshipping and working with them! 

Salaam and Shalom!
