I have had a wonderful trip with a group of wonderful people. It is wonderful to feel the love of Christ experienced through his people. I believe the apostle Paul would have had the same experience travelling with Silas, Luke and Timothy along these routes. Coincidently we also have a few medical doctors in this tour.
I shall be blogging about my musings about the tour over the next few weeks.
There were 28 of us in the tour. We visited the following places and the links are to Kar Yong's posts.
• Kavala
• Philippi (part 1, part 2[Lydia], Part 3, part 4, part 5)
• Thessalonica (part 1, part 2)
