In Zikhron


Our wonderful friends picked us up from the airport and took us to the city of Zikhron Ya’acov, a little south of Haifa. This is where we'll be staying for the next 4 1/2 weeks. The beautiful town is on a high bluff, with some overlooks to the Mediterranean.


Zikron Ya'acov literally means "remembering Jacob". It is a city where Jews and believer live together in beautiful harmony. It wasn't always like this, but today there is a beautiful presence of servant-like believers who love on brother Judah. Cal and I and several others will have the privilege of learning from these servants of Yeshua the Messiah. We hope to share much of what we learn of this wonderful point in time when the Father is restoring and "Remembering Jacob".


Not any more time to write, but later I hope to share with you a wonderful story of a Jewish store owner who I met five years ago. Last year, although I didn't know this, he feared he had offended me and several others in our group. He had carried this burden for a year and when we entered his shop he was eager to explain his comment. I was so touched by this man and
you will have to return to get...the rest of the story!
