Dear Elisha and Merle,
The tour of Israel will always be one of the highlights of my life. You were absolutely right. Our guide, Moshe, had to be one of the best. I learned so much. I am blessed to have been in Israel. Now I pick up my Bible, read (I’m reading through starting Genesis this year and just finished Joshua to Ruth) and say to myself, “I know where that is. I’ve been there!
Thanks again from a satisfied customer.
Dear Elisha,
I do want to tell you how much I enjoyed our recent tour. It did truly exceed my expectations and I appreciate how safe and perhaps overwhelmed I felt the entire time I was in Israel with you all. My favorite part of the trip was being at Kibbutz Kfar Blum and seeing the battlefields in the Golan Heights that I have read so much about, and as Pastor Daryl suggested, to take off my historical and archeological glasses and think in spiritual terms. I did try! Next year I’ll try harder.
Obviously I need more trips to Israel and what you are suggesting for May of 2008 does sound as though it would satisfy a problem I had with this one, in that there was no time to reflect on what I had just seen and heard. No doubt a more disciplined woman could have done that on the bus on route to the next place, but I was always focused on the beautiful scenery outside the window, not wanting to miss a thing!
I appreciate how knowledgeable was my guide, Yuval Harat, and at least he never lost me. Does this suggest the profit motive trumps brotherly love? Hummmm. And Moshe Malka is such a sweetheart! I love him! Certainly he and Yuval are opposites in personality and application, yet each interesting and contributed so much.
God Bless You, and my best wishes to Merle as well.
Hi Elisha and Merle,
During this Thanksgving season, we would like to thank you for the wonderful trip to Italy. Everybody was friendly and we enjoyed eating and writing with them. Your organization and selection of restaurants and excursions was excellent. It superceded what we had expected.
We are very happy that we went on this tour and are expressing that to all of our friends.
Have a blessed Thanksgiving Day.
Many thanks for a very special journey! I enjoyed your meditations and music so much! Because of this time together, I will have a more personal and closer walk with Jesus and the tools to understand more so that I can be more effective in my walk.
For anyone planning a trip to the Holy Land, I highly recommend that they travel with Pastor Don and Jan Christianson. Their experience, attention to detail and love for the Lord make it a truly inspirational and spiritual journey of faith.
