They are truly loving people, and they are hungry to learn. They make my job so easy, and each trip I find myself blessed. It seemed appropriate to me to instruct everyone to take a moment to themselves to be silent. After fifteen minutes or so I motioned to head down the narrow trail, past the cave, and to the bus. That was one of the most spiritual moments I can remember having with a group, and the next day everyone talked about it all day long.
Local pastors are truly special.
They continue to bless my life each year. I look forward to working with Bert Gary and the excellent instructors he selects. As always with Course of Study in Israel, you need to be in good enough health to do some hiking over rough terrain, and to do significant walking every day . I hope you will consider traveling with Course of Study in Israel, and studying at the Jerusalem Center. Contact Bert if you have questions or need assistance.
