more sleeps to go before we board the plane. so far we are feeling pretty good about our progress. packing clothes is the toughest for me because I want to bring so many shoes. Shoes are very important and because of my past broken ankles I want to be sure I pack well for all our activities and weather (and still look good!). Israel is so diverse and we are going to the mountains ,cities, deserts, lakes, and seas and will experience a few different climates. I am including a short video about the country diversity that might surprise you.

The Bible talks about bringing a sacrifice and an offering to Jerusalem for the fall feast days and as we are on this journey, I had to ask what I could offer or sacrifice ? I might have asked that question while I was sitting in my 'closet' because it was quite clear to me I could sacrifice some of my shoes and clothes and purses. So I have posted my stuff on face book and spreading the word that my closet is up for sale! For those of you who have not seen the 'closet' it is a room we converted into a sitting area and dressing room. It kinda looks like a little boutique and is the accumulation of years of working in the retail sales environment where I dressed for work. So far I have had a few ladies come over and shop it was fun! check out my post on g+ when you click on my profile on this page or on fb. I hope to raise as much as possible and feel led to give it to the widows and orphans over there. so spread the word! well I got to get busy now and pack,............now where did I put these boots I have for walking?
shalom.
