The day is finally here! The team will be departing for Bethelem shorty. Please pray for traveling mercies and specifically for us to have an easy time with Israeli security. Last year, we spent five hours in questioning. It was an exhausting time (especially after a long flight). Pray for God to ease our passage. We are excited and ready…Can’t wait to see what God has in store.

Last time we wrote, we promised to tell you about our new initiative: Prints of Peace. We had hope to write about this a week or so ago, but some unexpected circumstances prevented us from doing so.

So, what is Prints of Peace? In short, it is a picture exchange. Children from the US have created Christmas-themed artwork to send to Bethlehem. We will be decorating a classroom in Bethlehem and returning with artwork to decorate a classroom here in the States. This is our first year with this new initiative, we hope to expand it next year.

We will keep you updated through the blog and Twitter. Please keep us in your prayers. The best is yet to come!
