Photo Gallery: The Desert
Posted Apr 30, 2011 by 8 Comments
As I’ve written in a previous article, I recently returned from an incredible “Desert Encounter” with a ministry called Musalaha that seeks to reconcile Israeli and Palestinian believers.
In the article I talked a bit about the philosophy behind the trip, but I didn’t talk much about what the trip looked and felt like. That’s why I’ve put together this photo gallery. I want you to get a sense of the look and feel of our adventure in the wilderness.
Hopefully these photos will help you feel a bit like you were there…
- Although Musalaha asks its Desert Encounter participants to pay a small amount for the trips, most of the costs are shouldered by the ministry. For this, they need partners willing to support them financially. Would you consider investing in a future life-changing trip for an Israeli or Palestinian youth? Click here to find out more!
- Musalaha volunteers have produced a book full of stories from the lives of those that the ministry has touched in some way. If you want to hear more about how God is moving here, take a look!
- Pray for the teens that were a part of this Desert Encounter. Pray that they would continue to have their understanding of the world changed and that their time in the wilderness would be only the beginning of their journey toward reconciliation.
