Are You Ready For ISRAEL!!!





Greetings To My Fellow IYA Travellers,
I can smell it now, it's the smell of the
Mediterranean Sea, felafels, endless hummus and Dead Sea salt all over your clothes from hours of floating. We are so close to the beginning of our 2008 Israel Youth Adventure and I am so excited to see how God is going to work in your lives as you serve in His country Israel.
The Israel Youth Adventure has been invited back for a second year to Kaplan Hospital helping in their maintanence department working in several areas: cleaning, air conditioning, electric, painting, and tons of Turkish coffee to keep you awake!!!  This is truly a great opportunity to make long lasting friendship with each other and the local Israelis.  The IYA is full of adventure, learning, and fun!!!  But, most importantly it's a time to know God more through His Son Jesus the Messiah as we worship and grow to know Him more by the work of the Holy Spirit.  
Bruce and I are so excited to meet you and see how God is going to change your lives during this trip.  If you have any questions at all please feel free to email either Bruce or myself.
So brush up on your Hebrew and lets take care of some business.
Your IYA Co-Leader
Chris

This is great! Thanks for setting up this blog, Chris.

And that picture of you gives the impression that you were very content and happy to be at the wailing wall....and perhaps a little tired and in need of that Turkish coffee :)

You couldn’t have better trip leaders than Bruce and Chris!!! By the picture, we can see which one of them will tan and which one will burn on this trip :) You are all in my prayers and I can’t wait to see the next blog entry!!!
