The 20th of Av, 2013

Posted by Pam in Israel Prayer Garden. 5 comments

As we enter in to Shabbat on this 20th day of Av, I wanted to post these pictures of our walk through the new property. The storm clouds were absolutely magnificent! As you welcome Shabbat, look through these pictures and imagine all of the wonderful things that God will be doing on the land in the coming season!

: Beautiful storm clouds over the pond on our new land

: An old fallen tree. Declare that the old, dead things of the past are being uprooted!

: The small bridge, surrounded by trees at the front of the property

: Catalpa Tree

: View of the land from the road

: View of the road from the land

: So many beautiful trees!

: If you look close in the middle of the picture, you can see a cardinal resting on one of the branches

: View of Reuben from the land

: Jesus mowing the new land for the first time!

Celebrating New Life!

Posted by Pam in Israel Prayer Garden. 5 comments

Happy Wednesday!

I wanted to share some photos with you that I took last week and this week in the Garden. We had some beautiful, much needed rain that really made the Garden perk up and just glow. You will also know from the emailer sent out that the Pierces have welcomed a new addition to the family! Amber gave birth to Baby Elijah early yesterday morning, and he is just beautiful! Take a look through this new gallery of photos of the Garden and celebrate God’s gift of life with us!

Be blessed!
