Belated update

We are still alive...but touring has been really busy and we are now staying at a different hotel every night for the remainder of the trip and the internet has been hit and miss. I have only a few minutes (using someone else's internet) to describe to you what the past two days have been like....WOW! Yesterday (Monday) we went to Hezekiah's tunnel, Pool of Siloam, Old City, Temple steps, Southern wall, and the Church of the Sepulchre(sp?). It was alot of walking in one day. We spent the first half (about 8-noon) prayerwalking the old city, ate lunch and then did all the touring. It has been so neat to see how God has used my personal quiet times to relate to what all we have seen. Today (Tuesday) we have seen the Garden of Gethsemane, the Temple Mount (dome of the rock), Caiphas' house (possibly one of the coolest sites for me), Samson, the scene/place of David and Goliath, Pool of Bethesda, the Western Wall (wailing wall) and the Road to Emmaus. David and Goliath was really cool too...I brought back some stones from the creek where he was. I also collected some mosaic tiles from the Garden of Gethsemane if anyone wants one!!! Anyway the Lord is doing some amazing things but I am very limited for time...so I will have to tell you all later. It is getting late and we have a really long day tomorrow. I will try to blog again tomorrow night (if we can get internet) and try to catch you up some. We are having a great time and the Lord is working within us in an amazing way! We love and miss yall. Please continue praying for us.
