So, I have arrived home safely and made it through the ordeal of Israeli security on one end and U.S. customs at the other end. Yesterday was an outrageously long day but I made it to the 7 p.m. Eucharist with only a short nap late in the afternoon. After a good night's sleep last night, today went pretty well in re-entering. Above is a photo of our group and our leaders: a community of pilgrims. Great people to share the journey with.
