Resurrection Sunday Eve


The Following Post will include an itinerary of where we are headed and the instructions we have been given. (Don't worry, I have only copied and pasted it into the blog)

Cathi and I deeply appreciate your prayers. During the Passover Feast there was a poignant moment for the two of us. It came when we dipped the matzo in the bitter herb again, and then put the sweet apple mixture on top of it. It was to remind us that often in our lives bitter is mixed with sweet.

That is how I feel this afternoon as we pack and plan to leave. Tomorrow we celebrate the Resurrection of Jesus with all of you and then we head to Egypt, Jordan, and Israel. We will be gone twenty-one days. Away from our kids, family, and community. We will not be a part of our everyday life for almost a month and we will miss it terribly. At the same time we will experience adventures like traveling in open air jeeps accross the desert to get to the monastery at the foot on Mt. Sanai.

Our hope is to somehow take you with us...

Shema,
Scott and Cathi
