Summer Hebrew 03

Short update tonight but a fantastic day!
-I got to watch my little buddy play for almost an hour on Skype today. He's having great fun with mommy, Mimi, and aunt Courtney. (I think he misses daddy though :-(
-Got a glimpse of a wild antelope on my run today through the countryside.
-Spoke a full sentence in Hebrew to an Israeli and was understood!
-Hosted a wonderful prayer meeting in our hotel room tonight for all the students.
-Tomorrow I may be going to Jerusalem for the first time!

Contrary to what the picture may seem to indicate, our teacher actually do like one another. Here they are just demonstrating some Hebrew vocabulary for us as we were introduced to the sacrificial system. 95% of the class time is in Biblical Hebrew so they will do almost anything to help us understand without giving us a translation. This makes for a pretty wild four hours every morning!

Thanks for your prayers. Shalom.
