End of physically living in Jerusalem but prepared to always spiritually live in Jerusalem and Go Forth to Serve

Back in the States feels great. Here are 1,000 pictures from the last month.
Steps Jesus would have taken to temple mount. Al-Aqsa mosque above
One of our unique finds. Early Christian inscription in very bottom of Holy Sepulcher 
Dr. Woods preaching in Lutheran Church of Redeemer. Great guy
Seat of Moses in Corazin
In Akko bath house. Most popular tour here is a bath house for some reason
If Mark wasn't posing as he is this probably would have been a picture which made it seem more dangerous than it actually was
Tel Dan with Dan. This is where Northern Tribes wickedness was illustrated
Just climbing some ancient wall
More climbing. These niches where BYU students are climbing were ancient places to place idol god's, interesting

No Peter but we James and I enjoyed mount of transfiguration church
Battle of Armageddon at Megiddo
Mount of Beatitudes Church started a great day
Picture before the picture made Brett look more modelish so I chose it
Catholic Church does cool things like build churches over Peters house (and early church) in Capernaum
Church dedicated to Jesus asking Peter if he loves him three times
This is the church building in Tiberias and this is Charity
Enjoyed singing national anthem on Sea of Galilee
Chilling with some of my favorite fishers of men
Face looks weird but this grace is in Haifa, Israel and along with three others is the burial spot of early Mormons in Israel and the reason the Jerusalem Center could be established (showed we had people living here in 1800's
Iphone has the scriptures which I am teaching King Agrippa with at Caesarea
Mediterranean Sea
Snorkeled in the Red Sea
Completely blurry but completely great memories on the party bus. Some random van we would get sometimes for transportation had a cool sound and light system
Place of western wall directly facing the Holy of Holies
I just like touching this spots where cool stuff happened. Here John the Baptist was born. Also side-note, I no longer despise the name John because its just the Greek version of the Hebrew name which I claim
Mary's spring selfie. Selfie yuck
Palm Sunday in front of Christ's church a messianic Jew church
Lions Gate on Palm sunday
I like bagpipe and percussion bands. Palm Sunday parade
Masada. I eventually got frustrated with ancient things and looked for modern innovations to take pictures of. Masada was pretty amazing though
Dead Sea one of the coolest places/bodily experiences I daresay in the world
Washing of Feet Mass
Church of All Nations in Gethsemane on Holy Thursday evening
Church of Holy Sepulcher with cool dudes
Every Friday I tried to get this kid to lower his price for the ripoff Nike's he sells. The last Friday he threw in some free laces and got the best of me, I paid my 100 sheks
Mormons at a Christian Rock concert, I think we actually got into it more then some might expect
In front of the tomb on Resurrection Sunday
Putting prayer into a holy column
Playing frisbee with my friend Nighthawk's awesome frisbee
Our greatest missionary service was singing at ancient sites and I loved how people would stop and listen to us. This is outside the Upper Room site
Some cool JC staff Muhammed and Jamal
Getting converted by some Muslim brothers on the temple mount
Dome of the Rock last day in Palestine
Putting prayers in another holy wall
Corny
Riley and I jet lagged and falling asleep at graduation
Back with the people I love most
Go Forth to Serve is what I am blocking and what I am now excited to do
