Hurrah for Israel

After weeks of waiting and wondering, it has been made official. I am going to Jerusalem!!!! Well ... if all goes well then I will. :)

A few weeks ago, I received a packet from the Jerusalem Center. In were tons of forms and papers that I needed to read with a letter saying I was accepted to the initial placement for the Center. After submitting the first packet of forms I needed to schedule an interview. Yesterday was my interview!! I think it was used to put a face to my name and make sure I read the material (they asked me if I had any question about it) They told me how BEAUTIFUL Jerusalem is in the winter - it is very comparable to Las Vegas - and what a great opportunity it is. It is CRAZY to think this is actually going to happen!!! I pray that all will work out, especially financially.

Here are some things I am MOST excited for in the Holy Land:

• Ummm... it's the Holy Land!
• Being in a different country
• Going to Turkey and Jordan
• Meeting awesome new people
• Learning about new cultures
• LIVING with these new cultures
• Growing from the experience
• Learning history IN the area
• Growing spiritually
  
• Strengthening my testimony
• Walking where Jesus Christ walked

Well I am sure there is more but those are just a few. :) Please pray for me as things fall into place.

Love,

Me
