Day 2 Holy Land Highlights 2018

At the end of our Sunday journey, one man in our group told me: “Pastor Kerry, today was worth the price of the whole trip!” I agreed. 

We worshipped and fellowshiped with our brothers and sisters at Nazareth Church of the Nazarene, ascended to Mt. Carmel, and celebrated baptism in the Jordan River. An overflowing day indeed. 

Nevertheless, our hearts saddened in the night as Pastor Margaret and her daughter, Pastor Olivia, got a call that their mom/grandmother, Mrs. Knicely, had made her journey complete to Heaven from Mole Hill, Va. at 4am we sent them to the airport in a taxi. Prayers appreciated.
