Phew... what a day... sleeping in was quite lovely, but then our three hour long Hebrew class was rather painful for us all. Please keep us in prayer as it's been a little tricky to comprehend everything. Perhaps once I comprehend what they are teaching us, I'll attempt to make a video giving an overview of what we have learned here. Hehe... that would be interesting to see.
I really enjoy the Sabbath here. Very very very few stores are open during the day. The streets are empty and the city is calm and peaceful. Some say that it's a little eerie to see no one around except the tourists and those who don't observe the Sabbath, but I disagree. It's that feeling that you can get when you walk on a movie set after they are all done filming for the day... it feels odd that there is no one there, however, you can rather enjoy having it all to yourself. It's a nice time to just observe the city and pray...
"Pray for the peace of Jerusalem..." Psalm 122:6a
Love,
