FootSteps of Paul Daily Update Day 3
March 16, Philippi and Kavala
We started our day with a Worship Service outside of Philippi where Paul met and baptized Lydia, outside the old City walls. A Greek Orthodox baptistry building with beautiful mosaics stands 100 feet before the stream. At the stream is a peaceful spot where we held our communion service.
From there we visited the ruins of Philippi. The amphitheater, Paul's jail cell and the first Basilica with original mosaics were some of the highlights.
We then returned to Kavala where we broke up for Lunch and many hiked up to the Roman Aqueduct and Ottoman fortress on top of the hill overlooking the port. Returning to the hotel, we had free time to enjoy the beautiful area, read and relax.
