Museum Visitors
The Museum is open to the public only on Saturdays from 1-5 PM. Visits at other times can be arranged by calling for an appointment and we will be glad to accommodate you. Group visits are by appointment only (you must arrange a time in advance for a group tour). The Museum Director, Carl Morgan, will be excavating in Jordan from January 18th - February 24th at Tall el-Hammam. If you desire a tour of the Museum during that time, please contact our office at 530-662-2773 and make a reservation. Dr. Noreen Jacks will be happy to conduct the tour. The visiting hours on Saturday will remain the same.

Our Christmas Exhibit
We have decided to leave our miniature Bethlehem Village on display in the Coffee Shop area for awhile. The Village is composed of buildings and characters from the Fontanini Collection and is 6 feet by 8 feet in size. It offers a detailed look at what village life was like during the 1st century.

Some New Additions
Our two new display cases have been completed and are ready to go in the Museum. This will enable us to display more of our antiquity collection. Unfortunately, this will have to wait until the Director returns from Jordan.

Mission Statement
The primary reasons for beginning and maintaining the Woodland Museum of Biblical Archaeology are:
1. To preserve and display antiquities from the land of the Bible.
2. To promote the understanding and teaching of Biblical History.
3. To demonstrate the historical and geographical authenticity of the Bible.
4. To create a learning environment for understanding God's redemption of the world through      Jesus Christ.

Website
We have designed a new website that is more attractive and easier to navigate. If you haven't visited the museum website, please do so soon. The web address is: www.wufmuseum.org
