St. Ann's Parish Midland Texas Arrived for a Great First Day in Israel

by Steve Ray on November 18, 2013




[Family, friends and well-widgets: please leave greetings and comments below and I’ll read them daily on the bus]

Their flights arrived on time and all stepped off the plane a bit tired but enthusiastic and ready to go. We got them up to Galilee for a fine dinner and Mass on the shore of Galilee.

I hope you enjoy the videos. The first is the arrival and all the excitement of being in the Holy Land and driving north to Galilee. The second in Msgr. Droll’s first homily given right on the shore of Galilee with huge waves crashing in.

Msgr. Droll’s first Holy Land pilgrimage homily given on the wave-tossed Sea of Galilee. What a great opening homily!
