HaYesod Field Report #5

Good foggy evening from Jerusalem. Things are going really well. We are still two lessons behind on our schedule—we hope to make those up on Wednesday of this week. In the morning we leave for two shots at Qumran.

What has been so nice on this trip is that we have full permissions from all of the park services to shoot at the sites. It has given us essentially free access to explore, but more importantly, we have the ability to conduct our teachings without the pressure of time. Today for example we received permission to video at the Kotel. Those permissions are really hard to get so we wanted to take advantage of that and ended up shooting a short segment of our prayer teaching there.

Some really fun things have come together for us in shoots. I am not sure if everything will make it to the final teaching product—so perhaps we will have some outtakes. Thank you for your prayers, here are some more pictures from our time here.

Visitor Feedback:

I remember reading that the Temple Institute's Menorah had been moved from 'the cardo.' I like the new location above the entrance to the Kotel.

The 'Avinu Shabashamayim'inscription above the sculpture is new to me, too.

Great updates.

Shavuah Tov!

Please translate the Hebrew on the above statue for us...is it something like "Our Father...who art in heaven..."? Cool!

Thanks SO much for the regular updates and the photos. It's very nice to keep track of my hubby this way!!! There are a lot of people praying for health, safety, equipment that works, and weather that cooperates over here in IN and AZ. Blessings, Donalee
