What topic pertaining to the Holy Land are you researching?
The structure of Israeli government
What idea have you found inspiring as you’ve prepared for the abroad and/or prayed for the Middle East?
“This material world is even now becoming the arena for conflicting forces. On one side there will be discord and dismay; on the other side there will be Science and peace. The breaking up of material beliefs may seem to be famine and pestilence, want and woe, sin, sickness, and death, which assume new phases until their nothingness appears. These disturbances will continue until the end of error, when all discord will be swallowed up in spiritual Truth.” S&H Pg. 96:12
What biblical character or site would you want to be or do you feel you are like?
I think it would be pretty cool to be Moses. Many people looked up to him as a leader, and he was very confident in letting God’s Word guide him.
What is the place or activity you are most looking forward to on the abroad?
I’m very excited to see the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, because it is the traditional site of Jesus’ crucifixion and burial.
