Sign of Hope

After a few hours of study this morning, I decided to get some fresh air and went down to the front courtyard (remember the mummy?) to plant two pots of pansies. It was a nice surprise to find a group of some 20 young men from Korea making the Way of the Cross. I think they belong to some youth group that came here to make a pilgrimage, and by the looks they ranged from 15 - 25 yrs. Very encouraging sign that the Gaza situation is not bothering them; that they feel safe to make this trip. Hope more people feel this way and come to show the locals our faith in the Prince of Peace by walking in His footsteps.
