Leaving for Israel!

Hey Everyone!

Consider yourself special! You were one of the select few we have invited to go along with us to Israel. Sara and I leave for Israel Sunday at 7:00pm from LAX on Swiss Air. Our first stop after an eleven and a half hour flight will be the home of army knifes, secret bank accounts, clocks, cheese and chocolate.... Zurich, Switzerland. Our 7 hour layover will give us just enough time to to get a taste (get it...taste) of Switzerland.

After a three hour and forty five minute flight from Zurich we reach Ben Gurion Airport (formerly Lydda Airport) near Tel-Aviv. This is where Jesus, through Peter, healed a bedridden man causing the cities of Lydda and Sharon to turn to the Lord (Acts 9:32-35). We arrive at 3:30am, pick up a car and are on our way!

We will hopefully be updating this blog every day or so with some stories, pictures, and maybe a video or two. Don't worry we won't share everything with you, so we have an excuse to tell you all about our trip when we get home. Warning even if you don't want us to tell you we probably will anyway, so if you don't want to hear about it avoid us for the next six to nine months after we get back ;0) .

We love you all.

Mike and Sara
