Housekeeping!


Greetings, pilgrims!


A couple new things on the blog... to the left are some links. The three that are there now will most likely stay, and should help enrich your experience of our pilgrimage, if you wish.


First, there is a link to the group journal and pictures that is put together by our class as a whole. There is a day by day journal entry, and links to some rather extensive photos. This is a little more impersonal, but also more extensive.


Second, there is a link to a pretty decent map of the Holy Land, which can be clicked to bring up a very detailed one. If you want to see where the places we talk about are, look at that map.


Third, there is a link straight to our pictures on Picasa. We are going to try to limit each post to 1 or 2 pictures, while more will be posted on Picasa. I'm still figuring out how that site works, so it should evolve fairly quickly, hopefully improving! As of right now, there are 22 pictures posted, some of them with captions.


Well, those who are reading, I hope you're enjoying this a little bit at least! Any feedback, comments, and questions are very much appreciated through the comments function below!


God Bless,

Ben


Come Lord Jesus!

(Only 11 days of Advent left to prepare our hearts and minds for the coming of the Lord!)

Everything is looking fantastic with the blog, guys! I wish that I could be there with you seeing and experiencing all these wonderful things instead of here, studying for final exams and the GRE. Oh well. I've had my fair share of adventures too!
You are all in my thoughts and prayers. I went to mass yesterday for the Feast of the Virgen of Guadalupe and it was beautiful. Really good to hear mass (mostly) in Spanish again.
Love,
