Day two was as meaningful and spiritual as day one and we had a lot of fun too. The day began with a trip to worship at the location of a site honoring Jesus' sermon on the mount. We had a communion service that was very moving. We had the sermon on the mount read by a number of folks in the group. That was very powerful. We then had a chance to look around before heading to Chorazim. I thought the ruins in Chorazim were remarkable. There were two or three house ruins that were in tact enough to get a real sense of how the folks in the 1st century lived. After Chorazim we went to Arbel and had an incredibly scenic view of the Galilee. You can see so much from Arbel and it gave a real good overview of the area. Lunch in Tiberius was next and the food was as good as the company. Our group is really great and I'm blessed to be able to be a pilgrim with all of them. When we finished lunch we returned to Pilgerhaus and some of us decided to take a swim in the Sea of Galilee. It was a tepid 54 degrees (brrrrr). Loads of fun being in the water and acting like kids. I'm looking forward to tomorrow when we take a boat ride on the Sea of Galilee.
I'll stop writing now as I'd like to try to post a picture. This may take some time to figure out, so I'll end.
Blessing to you!
