Mount Arbel

 
We had not had enough hiking yet, but a lot of in-depth teaching

 The bus brought us to a higher place
There was a very nice view over the sea of Galilee
 a very fertile area


 It is very Jewish to climb up a mountain, then pray
this may be a mountain that Jesus would have climbed to pray

  One of those days Jesus went out to a mountainside to pray, and spent the night praying to God.


We were gathered together by Todd and asked to spread out
find your own personal spot and pray for your own talmidim
your own disciples

I'm often wondering are we intentional enough?
are we making disciples?
It was a command that Jesus gave when He left

So the eleven talmidim went to the hill in the Galil where Yeshua had told them to go.  When they saw him, they prostrated themselves before him; but some hesitated. Yeshua came and talked with them. He said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.  Therefore, go and make people from all nations into talmidim, immersing them into the reality of the Father, the Son and the Ruach HaKodesh and teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you. And remember! I will be with you always, yes, even until the end of the age.”

I asked the Lord who I was to pray for
and I prayed for Elissa
Elissa has caught the same excitement and passion 
for the bible in it's Jewish context  
It was by her initiative that we are now teaching the 
biblical feasts to the kids in the winter months



We started hiking again

 I often liked to start at the front
due to taking pictures, I'd get behind sooner or later


This looked interesting

 There was re-barb in the side of the mountain to hold on to
Taking this picture, I stood on a little hand rail 
and was holding on with one hand

 I loved it!
We went down really fast and that was cool

 Then we sat down and saw our insula come down


It didn't go to bad

 Look at Marjorie
knowing she doesn't like edges,she's doing great
Mike and Annie, her support team


It was quite steep and for some it was very scary

 We walked down


 Looking at all these caves
they would be part of another faith lesson later



That was a great ending to the day


Looking up to where we came from
