Masada.....

What a day! Today we went to Masada which is in the Judean desert! It is the last fortress that the Israelites held and is an amazing fortress! The area is desolate! We overlooked into the area of Sodom and Gomorrah. We saw the Dead Sea from the top as well.

The Dead Sea surprised all of us with the size, it was huge! Not sure why we thought it would be small, but there you go! Never too young to learn something!

We saw also caves, everywhere. Most likely the caves where David was and cut off a piece of Saul's robe! Really!

We spent time at the Red Sea where some of the team members floated! What a hoot! NO, we did not. We did not have suits and I am not sure I would have gone in there if you paid me! Quite salty and muddy! Our teammates had fun though...

It is time now to focus on the work ahead of us! We are anxious, on edge and excited all at the same time!

Pray for continued health and endurance as we potentially could be serving hundreds of people where we are going!

Our team is beautifully united, just like a family. We are here for each other, and in this for a common purpose. We want every person we come in contact with to feel cared about! That is why we are here!

We are going into darkness, we will put on the armor, lean on your prayers, and trust the Light will shine through our smiles, in our touches, and through our deeds!

Join us! Thank you as you are as much a part of the team as we are! We just happen to be here physicially! We could not do it without you!

We are all healthy and still eating well. Oh yes, we all sore calves!!! The is a city of stairs, everywhere!

Love to all you! Be kind to one another....
