Israel Team Update, Oct. 21
We visited the Shepherd’s Field just east of Bethlehem. A church was built there to remind us that God didn’t send angels to tell the rich and powerful about the birth of His Son, born King of the Jews, but the lowest of the low – the shepherds. They traveled to Bethlehem to see the Christ child, then they shared the good news with others.
Bethlehem was a small town on a limestone hill. Since it receives much rain, there were many caves, such as where Jesus was born. We visited the Church of the Nativity, but the line to see the grotto was 2-3 hours long. We are but 25 of the thousands of pilgrims from all corners of the earth seeking to better understand the life, times and places of our Lord and Savior, Jesus, and to draw closer to Him.
