Pilgrim in the Holy Land

One of our professors, Brother Skinner, commented to us that we were more like Pilgrims than tourists here in the Holy Land because we were seeking a better understanding of Christ and His mission and trying to better ourselves and come closer to Him. I have already felt that the few days that I have been here. It has been so much fun but at the same time I have learned and grown so much, too. Here are some pictures that I have taken so far - Enjoy!

Rachel, me and Karen with the Western Wall behind us and the Dome of the Rock behind it. It's such an experience to be around so many different cultures and so many different people so devoted to their faith
