galilean sabbath

November 28, 2015
We got to go to church in Tiberius today which is across the lake from where we're staying. The church building is a cute little house that the church bought in 2005 I think.


The chapel overlooks the water and they were joking around with us about how the only view that rivals this one is our chapel at the Jerusalem Center which overlooks the city. I feel so blessed to attend church in week in such sacred places. I loved how they had 4 hymn number holders, all in different languages and how the program was printed in two languages as well! Such a diverse little branch!


After church we stopped by the other traditional baptism spot on the Jordan River. We also sang primary songs! And on the bus ride Brother and Sister Muhlestein told us their love story haha! They met in Jerusalem...




We don't know exactly which spot it was that Christ got baptized but I think I like this one a little bit better. But with all things we've learned this semester, it's not where it happened that matters, but the event that actually occurred. I'm so grateful for a Savior who was willing to be a perfect example of all things we must do to return to Him!

When we got back we took more group pictures and just relaxed for the rest of the day. It was incredible.


These were my cute roommates in Galilee! I missed my old roommates but it was fun to mix it up!
