Israel Day 1 – Much more vivid

Shalom from Israel! Our plane flights went by quickly thanks to sleep and sharing stories with each other. Praise the Lamb! We arrived past midnight, Israeli time, to our hotel where the hotel staff had stayed up to serve us a special welcome dinner. We woke up bright and early the next day, today, and ate even more food so that we could head out to the first of our six locations of the day.

These classes are both great and are getting us even more excited for our Israel trip! When we’re in

It’s crazy that we only have a couple work weekends left in the year. The Joshua building is buzzing with excitement as we prepare for Israel.

Harry Potter!

JOSHUA WILDERNESS is such an awesome place!!! Especially when we have Harry Potter theme dinners (so much fun). We got to drink some butterbeer and have fish and chips just like Harry, it made our tummies full and bubbly with joy LOL. We also had a fun activity where we had groups and we went through an escape room. It was pretty hard but some groups got out way faster than others. Sadly though our
