Day Five in the Holy Land. Thursday 19th February 2009
Who would have thought, that on my 26th birthday I will be celebrating it on the shores of the Sea of Galilee, in a pilgrimage trip that was gifted to me only by the grace of God through others. Today I went to some amazing places, but to be on my birthday made it that extra special. All thanks to be God!!

Day Four in the Holy Land. Wednesday 18th February 2009
Now we are in the middle of this amazing journey in the Holy Land and what better place to celebrate is in Bethlehem, at the Church of Nativity, where the birth of a King and Messiah was born into a world that already didn’t want him. But he took it all for us. Hope you enjoy the rest of Bethlehem with me.
