Israel

It was a crazy year to buy a house AND go to Israel. Pretty much broke my wallet to do it, but very glad I did. And the lights stayed on at home, praise the Lord!

What a significant time to be in Israel, celebrating the 60th Anniversary of their nationhood in the land. AND the ability to attend the matchup of the THE CALL, Jerusalem with the Global Day of Prayer. Amaaazing! Turns out it was one of the largest tours the country had hosted of 60 tour buses- so yes I felt safe!
