MISSION: Israel

For some in our team today started very early with a flight just after midnight (local time) taking off from Prague to Tel Aviv. Our final team members arrived in here just a few hours before the concert. We were warmly received by the audience of local residents attending the event in one of the largest halls here in Haifa. We are having the time of our lives.

Tomorrow we will take time to tour the northern part of Israel before heading to our next stop in Tiberias. Along the way we will be joined by Cherry Hills pastor Mike Anderson who will conduct a service of baptism at the Jordan River.

Thank you all for your prayers. We can feel them. We are experiencing the presence of the Lord every step along this journey. Check back Saturday for another update.

  4. "We are having the time of our lives!"

    Those of us following your adventure share your joy in the Spirit!" Listen, you just might hear us. May your hearts be filled with awe and may our shared excitement bring renewed joy to those you come in contact with.

    O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, killing the prophets and stoning those who are sent to you! How often would I have gathered your children together as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you would not! Behold, your house is forsaken. And I tell you, you will not see me until you say, 'Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!" Luke 13:34-35

    "For you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the Living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable angels in festal gathering, and to a judge who is God of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect, and to Jesus, the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that speaks more graciously than the blood of Abel. See that you do not refuse him who is speaking." Hebrews 12:22-25

    After this I heard what seemed to be the loud voice of a great multitude in heaven, crying, "Hallelujah! Salvation and glory and power belong to our God...Praise our God, all you his servants, you who fear him, small and great." Revelation 19:1 & 5.

    Praise His name! May the Lord continue to bless you and keep you and make His face to shine through you. Amen.
