Nazareth Baptist Church

First Baptist Church of Nazareth 

On Wednesday our group and all our luggage arrived safely. Amen!

Thursday we met with Fuad Sakhnini, pastor of the Nazareth Baptist Church. It was wonderful to hear of his dynamic work. Also on Thursday, we toured Herod’s Palace and the Roman Amphitheater. We went to Mt. Carmel and saw the site where Elijah battled with the prophets of Baal. We finished the day having dinner on the shores of the Sea of Galilee.

While in Galilee, I met a man who has attended Olive. He is working here as an evangelist and doing fantastic work. He walked up to me and called me by name and asked if I was the pastor of Olive Baptist Church in Pensacola. I was shocked!

The trip is off to a grand start. I am praying for you to have a wonderful weekend. I will report more as I have time.

Pastor Ted Traylor
