Day 13 of Trip to Israel

We started the day building a second altar to dedicate the Eastern side of Israel to the Lord.















Our next stop was Beth-Shean. This is where King Saul's body was displayed (1Sam. 31:8-10)













During the first century A.D., the Romans built this area up. This is a model of the city.













Up close, this is what the cardo, or main street, looked like.













This is what it looks like today.













This is the Kursi area. It is here that Jesus healed the demoniac in Mark 5.













Boarding the boat to ride across the Sea of Galilee.













Watching the waves of the Sea of Galilee.













St. Peter's Primacy. This is where Peter was restored by Jesus starting at Jn. 21:15.















Anna Hayford, Jack's wife, took a moment to share an encounter she had with the Lord at this site.













In Capernaum, this is where they believe Peter's house was.













Nearby is a synagogue, possibly where Jesus preached and healed.













At the Jordan River. This isn't the place where Jesus was baptized, that area has dried up a bit. But at this area, there is enough water for many to be baptized.














Two pilgrims baptized at the Jordan River.

Hey would you mind letting me know which webhost you're utilizing? I've loaded your blog in 3 completely different browsers and
I must say this blog loads a lot faster then most. Can you recommend a
good hosting provider at a fair price? Thanks, I appreciate it!
