Shalom Y’all!
In 2007, I was blessed to be able to go to Israel with our church group and it changed my life, spiritually and in every way! This year, 2008, I was unable to go to Israel, but I was very blessed to be asked by the pastor to cater their reunion supper.
I initially declined [...]

THE GARDEN LESSON
As I lay in the hospital bed in the Bone Marrow Transplant Unit, my body torn by such pain as I have never known and the prognosis so grim – Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia – my thoughts continually went to Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane. In fact, as I went in [...]

Shalom Dear Friends in the Messiah Yeshua!
In the days following my return from Israel, I have thought of little else. How alive that land is with G-d’s presence and His Word. In the places we walked, one could almost feel Jesus among us and see where He Himself walked and ministered. It truly is the [...]

 
Shalom,
Finally home. Israel was wonderful, but it went by way too fast.

Shalom Y’all!
We have been seeing so many things that it all becoming a blur! LOL! I believe it will not truly sink in until I get home and sort out some pictures.

I will quickly post this, but I hope to get online and post in more detail with pictures to boot.
 
We spent a [...]

Shalom,
My bags are packed. I should say more accurately that my bags are busting at the seams and I had to lay on them to get them closed and I hope they pass check-in and… and… and…
My husband wanted me to take our camping water filter in case the plane crashed and we found ourselves [...]

Shalom,
Only 2 more days before we leave. Last minute jitters and concerns; “Did I pack enough toothpaste and underwear?” “Will I have enough clothes?” “What if I run out of stuff?” “What will the Customs agents do to my suitcase?” (I am packing things in bags that are pressed down to remove air and I [...]

Shalom!
I’m preparing for my 10-day trip to Israel and also preparing for my family to have my home-cooked foods and breads while I’m gone. I’m doing that for several reasons. One is that I care enough about their nutrition and health to make sure they are eating well in my absence. Another reason is that [...]
