For this journey

Unfortunately, I have not been a consistent blogger, and I hope that has not created much frustration for any of you.  

Right now I'm sitting in one of the two places in Taybeh I have access to the internet—Maria Khoury's house. She has been a beautiful source of encouragement and help to me here in Taybeh. I'm sitting here with Angam, one of my dearest friends and for that reason this blog will be short. I am in "return" mode now and so the little time I have with people here in Taybeh is precious to me—pray that the time spent will be sweet, drenched in God's Spirit. 

I leave Thursday for Jerusalem to stay there until Saturday morning with my friend from North Park University, Maggie. On Saturday I leave for Tel Aviv, pray for me around 12:00 p.m. my time. Security might be difficult for me. From there I go to London for the night where I'll stay with my professor's friend and leave for the States the next morning (Sunday). Pray for the people I'll encounter on this journey home. 

Though I haven't blogged much, I hope to continue to write and tell others about this trip. Feel free to check back here over the next weeks and months periodically to see if anything new has arrived.
