10.23.18 - St. Elizabeth Scripture Group's Trip to Bible Museum, Washington DC - Description written by Rita Hatchett. Photos sent by Janet Stern

Fr. Jim and St. Michael parish members in the Bible Museum, Washington DC

It was amazing.  Too much to see in the time we had. Enough for two days if you like to immerse yourself in all that is offered. Something for everyone, even if not a Christian.

Restaurant inside served hardy portions of food.  Free audio guides available. Pro photos 6x8 only $5 with Bible Museum backdrops. Plenty of places to rest.

Everyone enjoyed. Scripture class saw things we had studied or are studying in a visual way, had a few surprises actually seeing artifacts.

I can't wait for someone to run another bus trip. I will certainly try to get onboard.
