So this is it: the first of hopefully many posts on this wonderful blog. As I sit here and write i have a mere 5 days until my semester in Israel begins. It's hard to believe that this summer has in fact blown by; however, hopefully in the next couple of days I will be a little bit more prepared for this adventure in Israel to begin. Over the next four months I look forward to the oppertunities that await and the doors that God has prepared for me to walk through. Israel has both rich history and beautiful culture, and I look forward to becoming a part of both.
