I was so grateful to be able to experience the Christmas season in Israel.  It was so great!  Here are a few of my favorite highlights. - Janelle

I learned a lot more about the temple mount this year, helping me develop a great love and understanding of the temple.

Here are the East Gates-- now sealed up, someday Christ will return!

A group outside the Garden Tomb. What a lovely place and a powerful spiritual feeling.

This is inside the traditional Lazarus tomb site.

Steps that date 100 B.C. to about 100 A.D. Awesome to walk on them and think who may have walked on them in history!

Yum, yum!  Actually, it tasted much better than it looked. –Margaret
