Day 11

FRIDAY JUNE 30
this morning we packed up our bags loaded the bus and headed out for our last day in Israel.
Our first stop was Mount Precipice. This mount overlooked the Jezreal valley or the valley of Megiddo. This is where the battle of Armegeddion will be fought and the blood from the nations will be as deep as the horses bridles. This was so sombering. The valley was huge! That is so much blood, and so many people who are going to be lost for eternity!
Our second stop was Mount Carmel. This is where Elijah had a competition with the prophets of Baal to see which god was the true God.
After this we went to Cesera maritima where Herod "the great" built his palace, an amphitheater and hippodrome. This is also where Paul would have spent some of his time in prison before going to see Ceaser.
We then went to the Eastern Alter which is the alter of praise.
After this we went to our Farwell supper at Jaffa. Talk about food! The food kept coming and we were told that was only the appitizer!
We headed to the airport where we said good bye to our amazing bus driver Niem. Then we headed through check in and said good bye to our tour guide Benni.
We got through all 3 levels of security and are waiting to get on the plane.
Thanks so much for your prayers and blessings as we traveled through the land of promise!
Shalom! Next year in Jerusalem!
