Huge Thanks and Love to our Amazing Moms today! We love you and miss you lots!
And Happy Mother's Day to all the incredible moms we know!
The last few days we have been helping out with a cool initiative here in Bethlehem - a place for youth to go. They already have a rock-climbing wall so we helped to run that, and they are opening a ropes course for youth and education center with an organic garden where they will employ local people. So yesterday was a lot of hard work in the desert sun, hauling rock and dirt and trying to get that place ready to open. It is a great idea for this area since people are not able to go outside the wall very often and don’t have many options of things to do (especially youth), and we are glad to be a part of helping get it started.
We wanted to include a picture of the delicious middle-eastern we've had a chance to enjoy here: hummus, pita, veggies, olives - Yum!
And here’s a couple pictures from the market in Bethlehem - Christy enjoying a nice cup of Arabic coffee (dark coffee ground with cardamom pods with sugar), and the creatively displayed tomatoes.
We are continuing to build relationships, ask lots of questions and pray with people when we can....and it has been good.
Lots of love!
J & C
