"God, where are you?"

Those persons concerned that they have not heard from Jessica in several days (that includes most of us) can understand why when they read her letter of Sunday afternoon.  She has been busy and stressed as she and Kristen led 24 Irish Methodists on a tour of the historic Holy Land.  She felt sad and  not inspired by empty churches and so-called holy places.

Jessica was moved to tears as she saw more of cruelty and mistreatment in a land called holy.  She found herself crying out, "God, where are you?"

Hearing directly from a person serving in Israel is an experience we can share, but it may not always  be what we expect.  I trust all of us will support Jessica with our sincere prayers.

     @ Jessica became owner of a puppy today, a female puppy about 7 weeks old and  weighing 4 pounds. It is named Eliana, or Ellie, meaning in Hebrew "M y God has answered me."
