Welcome Home Jessica

Jessica Lowe returns May 1 from a Methodist  mission trip in the Mid East. Jessica was an honor grad from LSU and was graduated Cum Laude from Duke. She was commissioned as a Methodist Pastor in June and left for Israel July 1, and has served there since.

Her first two weeks there, she lived in an underground cave volunteering at a bible school held on a farm.  She has done various volunteer work while living in Jerusalem, tutoring at a school, serving with a humanitarian group at a checkpoint, preaching at the Church of Scotland and other activities.  She has made both Israeli and Palestinian friends while working with both groups.

Jessica is the daughter of Roy and Jennifer Lowe.  Roy Lowe spent 20 years in Homer as editor of the Guardian-Journal and six years as mayor.

Jessica will be honored at a Welcome Home Celebration in Shreveport on May 7.
