Departing Today

Today a group will be departing for a trip to Israel for ten days. We have twenty-four going on this trip. We 15 of us will leave from Houston and go to Toronto, Canada. From Toronto we fly to Tel Aviv where we will join up with nine more. This is truly an international group. We have people from South Africa, United Kingdom, Russia, Costa Rica, Mexico, Panama, Puerto Rico, United States. Our first stop after arriving to Israel is Caesarea Maritima. Acts 10 records the story involving Cornelius and Peter. Then we read about Paul witnessing to King Agrippa and his wife Bernice in Caesarea.  This is port city built by Herod the Great.  After taking that first stop in then we head to our hotel in Hadera on the Mediterranean Sea for dinner and hopefulyl a good night's sleep.
We have been blessed to be able to go to Israel and Jordan. For us we have a different experience each time we go and this will be no different.
