		<title>Tony Blair&#8217;s visit to Nazareth: June 20th</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I’m now sitting at home after the successful visit of Mr. Tony Blair to the Fauzi Azar Inn and Jesus Trail. Thinking about today’s excitement, stress and relief, I can describe this long anticipated visit as a tornado storm that hit the Fauzi whose long-term results are yet to be seen. We were preparing for [...]]]></description>

		<title>Palm Sunday in Nazareth</title>
		<description><![CDATA[All morning we heard the bells. Other than their ever joyful clang, the streets of the Old City were quiet on this warm Sunday morning, but as we sauntered down the deserted avenues in our Sunday best, trickles of well-dressed families joined our descent towards the Basilica. Suddenly we came out onto Casa Nova street [...]]]></description>

		<title>Meet Merrill, Jesus Trail&#8217;s Oldest Hiker at 91</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Climbing from the Old City of Nazareth, out over muddy paths, onto Zippori, a group of Jesus Trail hikers straddled rushing water in the path, knocked mud off shoes, stopped for lunch under rain clouds, and kept hiking. But this was no ordinary group of hikers. Among the hikers, Merrill Ohlson walked along at a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Philip&#8217;s Flower Collection</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This past week, I had the privilege of walking the Jesus Trail with a group for two days. The land has become incredibly alive with vibrant colors, so I snapped a lot of photos of things I thought beautiful along the way. Any favorites?

		<title>Hospitali-Tea and Coffee</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t like hot drinks. If I want to drink something, I do not want to sip it cautiously – knowing that any sudden move could spell ruin for my previously capable taste buds. It is true that I could let the drink cool, but by the time it is drinkable, I could have already [...]]]></description>

		<title>Nazareth&#8217;s Old City Souq</title>

Six days a week (Sunday the market becomes still and at rest) the winding streets just below the Fauzi Azar Inn and surrounding the White Mosque are crowded with sellers and buyers, locals and visitors.

		<title>Changing Lenses in Cana</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One never knows what an adventure will include.  Perhaps that is why we go looking for them.  Often, however, they find us before we are prepared to fully process them.  I find that my imagination and expectations are often too narrow for the fabulous adventures of daily life.  The Jesus Trail provides a framework for [...]]]></description>
