Well, nobody has blogged in a couple of days. I feel like I am "talking" too much, but wanted to at least let people know back home that we are still all doing well.
The convention has been awesome. We have really been feeling God's presence here and I love hearing His word as he has been speaking to me. Last night, we saw a wonderful performance called The Covenant. It was very moving. It was a history of Israel and her people put on by some wonderful performers, showing how God has in the past and will continue to keep His promise, his covenant with Abraham to give this land to the people of Israel. If you get a chance, go to www.thecovenant.com and order it. I plan to buy it.
We get to spend time touring in the afternoons still. Yesterday we were up on the Mt of Olive and walked along the Palm Sunday road, and down to the Garden of Gethsamene. We spent some quiet time there. Very beautiful and peaceful place. We were right across from the old City, right across from the Golden Gates where Jesus will return thru. A front row seat :)
Last night, even many years of Pastoring and leading, Pastors Tom and Cindy and Jerry and Judy were ordained. It was also very moving. You all have been wonderful leaders and friends to us, and we are all truly blessed to know you.
Thank you again everyone back home. and I have to thank Lawrence for being ok with me being gone for so long and I love and miss you, and thank you to my wonderful mother in law, Bonnie for coming out from Baltimore to take care of my kids. I truly appreciate it. And to Zachary, Jonathan, Sarah and Jacob, I love and miss you!!

I love reading your blog and no, you have not talked too much. Each day I check to see what is going on with the group and appreciate the time spent writing about your adventures. How wonderful to actually be in "The Garden" I Don't know if there are any rules about blogging but please tell my sister , Donna, hello and that we are praying for them. (and all) Thanks Marcia
I will let Donna know. We are hoping to get more people on to blog, but connection at the hotel is hit and miss. Sometimes it works better and other times, nothing will open up. By the way, Carl has been doing great. Everyone is impressed with his determination and how much he has walked, especially with the amount of steps we have had to go up and down.
