The Adventures of Martin and Katie Luther and Jesus!

Dear friends,

It has been a while since I last traveled and was so excited to

take a trip back home to Israel with Bruce and Dorothy An-

derson last month, who spent three days traveling the path of

my ministry. We passed through many cities where I

preached the Gospel to the multitudes, visited Mt. Carmel

and Nazareth, the Yardenit Baptismal site on the Jordan and

Capernaum Church of the Beatitudes on the Galilean hillside.

In the city of Jerusalem, we stopped to admire the beautiful

view of The Old City, where Dorothy and I took a photo op

with the Dome of the Rock in background. I had such a good

time visiting my old stomping grounds with Bruce and Doro-

thy, whom I would like to thank for taking me along! If you

are planning any travels soon and wouldn’t mind me or my

good friends Martin and Katie Luther tagging along, please contact Pastor Al at [email protected] to see if we are

available!

clude sign up sheets to join group(s) as well as invite

cated in Luther’s Lair.

The Life Hiking Group of Resurrection Lutheran Church

enjoyed a 3.8 mile round-trip hike to Alamo Falls in Catalina

State Park. The temperature was pleasant, many wildflow-

ers and shrubs were identified by guide Elisabeth Wheeler,

and the views were spectacular! During snack time at the

falls, Alan Feddersen provided a thoughtful message about

Christmas based on the Charlie Brown Christmas sto-

ry. Our Christ-centered fellowship was enhanced by Alan’s

message and the sharing during the hike.

To join the Life Hiking Group email:

Elisabeth Wheeler [email protected], or

Cathy Nolan [email protected], or Alan Feddersen

about the group and upcoming hikes being offered.
