Day3 Monti d'Anima - Mountain of the Soul
Due the fact that there is still snow on many of the mountains over 1000 mt., we decided after our adventure a few days ago on Mt. Altissima to skip 11 mountains in the Apennines. This little mountain at only 897 mt. was not hard to find nor difficult to climb and was completely snow less and seemed it was long forgotten and overgrown, although after the winter
everything looks this way. This day the
lord gave the scripture Joshua 4:9 where Joshua set up the twelve stones that
had been in the middle of the Jordan at the spot where the priest who carried
the Ark of the Covenant had stood. One
of the things that is so fun about this prayer adventure is that we have to
always as the local people, how to get to these places. Always amazed at how well everyone knows
their surroundings even up in the mountains.
This was just a steep road up to a closed Bed & Breakfast, park the
car and walk up a private road. We came
to a house out in the middle of this mountain that conveniently had Mt. Anima written
on it, so we knew we were here. Directly
in front of this house was a steep climb of about 200 mt. more and across the
crest.

This one wasn’t too horribly
dangerous once on top. There were a
little signs of war, some fox holes, but really not much to see except an excellent lookout point. We gathered
11 stones of marble and then I (Joyce) had grabbed some smooth marble stones from the
beach in Massa so I took one out of my backpack and wrote some scriptures and
stuff on it and added it to the pile along with us carrying the glory of the lord we took
possession of the mount and released His glory in the land...
What we noticed on this climb was that there were
all these beautiful flowers everywhere, God had decorated the paths with all of
these wonderful flowers and only if you pass by will you see them. We were spoiled that day with His beauty. This was a light prayer day in comparison
with our K2 Mt. Altissima experience.
