Help support our friends in Israel in their time of need.
The time has finally come at last. Today we all met at 3 pm at the Tom Bradley International Terminal at LAX to begin the check in process with Turkish Airlines for our trip to Israel. Everyone is really excited and we can’t wait to begin our study tour through the Holy Land. Once we board our flight at 6 pm we will travel for 13 hours before we land in Istanbul and then transfer to our connecting flight to Tel Aviv Israel. It’s going to be a long day as we leave on a Saturday and arrive Sunday evening around 8:30 pm Israeli time. We are ready for the adventure of a lifetime, so keep the 70 of us in your prayers and continue to follow us on the blog. We will make sure to do a short update when we arrive so you will know that we made it to Israel safe and sound. To quote Lao Tzu, “A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step.” So here is to that first step……
Take care

Because we love quotes
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” — Mark Twain
