I am sorry that you did not see more posts from Israel. I found out that the hotels in Israel do not have the free WiFi that our hotels do here. So I was too cheap to keep buying that time. Also we went from 7:30 in the morning til 8:00 at night and we were too tired to type at the end of the day.
But the visit to the holyland has changed my look at holy week! As we prepare here for these holy days, my feelings run much deeper. When I think of the Good Friday service, I can not help but think of the Garden Tomb that we saw in Jerusalem. Somehow being able to see the places that Jesus walked make His suffering and death so very much more real I wish that everyone could have the experience. I stood in the prison cell that probably held Jesus before he went to appear before Pilate and we saw the steps that the soliers dragged Jesus up after they took Him in the Garden.
All of this simply reminds me that "I AM NOT WORTH WHAT JESUS HAD TO PAY FOR MY SIN!" Holy week helps us to remember that fact. Please join us for Maundy Thursday and Good Friday at 7:00pm to remember and on Sunday to celebrate!
In Christ,
Paul Hoyer
