To Caesarea Philippi


Yesterday was a whirlwind of places - from Chorazin to Bethsaida, onto Capernaum and the Mount of the Beatitudes, and ending at the Church of the Multiplication at Tagbha.  Looking out over the Sea of Galilee, it brings a real sense of knowing this is the area where Jesus spent most of his time.  He traveled these roads, visited these cities, taught at the squares and synagogues, and performed miracles and healed many who came to him.


Hannah & Gus wanted pictures of our food...this was lunch at the convent at the Mount of the Beatitudes.  It is called St. Peter's fish...bonus points to those who know why it's called that.  Oh, it was pretty good, for those who are wondering.


Today we head to Caesarea Philippi, another place familiar in the Gospels.  This is the place where Jesus asked the disciples, "Who do you say that I am?" - a great question for pilgrims following in the steps of Jesus as his disciples did.

Love to you all,

Chris & Bryn
