Turkey is a mesmerizing country encompassing more history than most people realize.

mother of Christ, lived out her last days on earth in Ephesus. I
visited that part of Turkey several years ago and was amazed by
the stunning landscape and beautiful weather. A great deal of
Christian history existed in the area; various Apostles lived and
preached the word of Christ here. John the Baptist was also one of
the more active people here.
The picture of the lady in red was Ms. Zebra Arsian Ceylan,
our tour guide standing at the front wall of the Celius library. The
library was the third-largest in the Roman Empire, holding over
ten thousand scrolls. I need to stop my history story about the
Celius library because it can be too long. You need to travel to this
part of Turkey and hire an excellent historian to tell you more. I
hope this short article will give you an overview and stimulate your
desire for a personal journey.
Unfortunately, COVID-19 has triggered the cancelation of
two of my international trips over the next few months. The good
news, they were prepaid and could take place later in 2022.
I expect to be back soon to share my travel experiences!
