Hey friends! I’m in Africa now but there are some things I wanted to share about Israel so lets go back in time a week or two. On our first day ruth and I went to the shouk and the benya huda. Both are basically the same in the fact that you can buy pretty much anything. I think this was my favorite thing to do, and not so much because I enjoyed purchasing new things but more for the endless entertainment. You see, the price is never fixed and, in fact, the price is guaranteed to be far above what they are willing to sell it for. So you barter. And boy did I love it! I would start 40% off and they would look at me as though I was out of my mind. Then they would offer 5%- 10% off. The more time I wasted, and the closer I got to walking out the door, the closer they got to my offering price. before you know it i got what i asked for even after they clamed they could not give it to me at the price five minutes ago. Their famous line was “special offer…..just for you”.We also took a trip to the dead sea. The dead sea is so full of minerals that you float! You can’t really do much else but read a book; swimming is impossible due to the fact that you can’t keep your feet in the water. You can dig mud from the rock cave and have yourself a luxury spa experience for fee.
We went to other historic sites such as the old city, the wailing wall, the mount of olives, and Capharnaum, the town of Jesus.
I would like you to meet some friends of mine. Elton, Dave (not Don) and Gorge. Elton started Jaffa Gates Ministries to feed people living on the streets and in recovery housing, much like our Calgary Dream Center, though not nearly as nice. In fact the worst run down building in Calgary would seem like a five star hotel in comparison to most buildings in Jerusalem. These men visit a handful of kitchens, For Zion’s Sake being one of them, around Jerusalem who have offered to cook a hot meal. We are bagging crackers, pita bread, and cookie while Stuart is cooking rice and burgers. i will add their website to my favorite links so you should check it out!
