The Group

What a blessing it was to have a small group. Our bus was scheduled for the original group size of 40 so it was a full size bus with room for 50. Everyone had a window seat. We spent a lot of time together from morning meals to evening meal as we traveled together, ate together and prayed and studied the Bible together. Our Sar El Guide (Ronnie Cohen) had more knowledge than I could hold in my mind. Ronnie shared history, life as a Jew and also as a soldier and finally as a Jewish Christian that made each site we visited come alive. Our two pastors each shared a Bible study three or four times a day at key sites to expand on what we saw and learned.

From here you could see the Mt of Olives.
