Day 10,11, and 12






Well sorry guys my camera died and also my computer. Today is day twelve and it was pretty exciting day. I have been up since 5:30 and its currently 10:30 it has certainly been a long day. I have decided that I need to do my Chuck tracks... 5 down 64 left to do.

Day 10

Where do I begin? Monday morning we woke up and left for the rental car place down the street and had a awesome game of ninja. I do not know who but someone put me in charge of the GPS and the map. I took us the wrong way and we got lost, getting lost is not so bad but where we got lost was REALLY BAD. Well I shouldn't say i got us lost because when I was leading we weren't lost( we were suppose to go east then north yet we went west then north) But when everybody decided to lead we got really lost... IN THE WEST BANK! Yeah we went through the West Bank, it was pretty crazy. We got stopped and everything, yet we didn't know where we were. It was suppose to take us two hours to get to Nazareth it took us 5 hours. When we finally got there we stopped in Nazareth Village. Nazareth Village is a place where they keep the grounds just like that of Jesus' day. Its a pretty cool place our tour guild was a Palestinian Christian girl it was very interesting. We also ate a meal that Jesus' could very well of eaten. Well about an 2 hours later we where in Galilee! I went to bed shortly after getting there I was beat.

Day 11

We woke up at 4:30 (early i know) to go see the sun rise on the sea of Galilee. All I can say is it was BEAUTIFUL! However pretty much everyone was really tried after, and it was just the beginning of the day. We went to the Mount. of the Beatitudes, and had class up there. After sending about an hour and a half there we took off to Peters Church and had our second class there in the grass. short after we went to Peters house... now we did not look around Peter's church but Peter's House was kind of interesting. There is so much that happened I don't want to write it all out sorry. We even hit the spot where many people believe where the demonic pigs jumped of the cliff. Finally when we got back we got some fish and yes, I ate its eyeballs. They were really good actually, the fish is the most common fish in the sea of Galilee. Shorty after I slept like a baby.

Oh man i completely for got one of the most important things that happened. We swam in the Jordan river. It was amazing we were all so very tired but it was very refreshing. I was baptized again but this time it was my way to show the people around me that i want God to lead my life. And to guild me into ministry as a missionary, it was a very emotional time and there was a lot of people that got baptized 12 I believe.

Day 12

For some crazy reason I decided to wake up and go to the mount of Beatitudes for the sun rise. So that's why i was up at 5:30... It was so worth it we read the sermon on the mount. It was quit the experience a breath taking view! We had about an hour and a half before we had to leave. The drive back to Jerusalem was cool view but i fell asleep. Ramsey took off to Jordan today, please keep him in prayer. Oh I got addicted to Chess again. Well I cant think of anything else to write about.

Prayer request:

-The Marietta Campus needs prayer there has been a lot of theft, and hearts not seeking God almighty.
-Where i am to be a missionary, and my faith
-The students here
-Ramsey to follow Gods plan not his own
