We're Off To Israel

Hello all,
We are on our way to Israel! Thank you for your prayers on our behalf and for the Haifa Baptist Church and their pastor Philip Saa'd and his wife Violet. Our trip by air from start to finish will be about 19 hours. Wow! The space shuttle Discovery is the only faster way to get there but those tickets were more than we could afford but thanks to the generosity of the body of Christ, our expenses have been met.

This is what I believe the Lord spoke to our hearts this week as we prepare for the conference in Nazareth. It's from Isaiah 12:4-6: "In that day you will say: 'Give thanks to the LORD, call on His name; make known among the nations what He has done, and proclaim that His name is exalted. Sing to the LORD, for He has done glorious things; let this be known to all the world. Shout aloud and sing for joy, people of Zion, for great is the Holy One of Israel among you." Now that's a great word and I believe a reading from Philippians 2:8-11, tells us how to do that. God's blessings to you all.

Love in Christ,
Pastor Don and Dorothy
