Welcome Spring!

By -
I think pretty much everybody looks forward to Spring.  Having been in the PNW for 19 years, I admit that as much as I love how green things are here, I get weary of the constant rain and gray skies that seem to characterize our Winter.  

It's been a bit nippy this first week of Spring - but seeing a quilt as beautiful as this one promises that warmer days are ahead!

In a recent newsletter from AIH , we were blessed by the introduction to the German work team who came during Purim to remodel the Survivors' apartments.  We want to share their video and website with you.  I think you will be amazed at their work and their heart for bringing G-d's love to the Survivors.   Check out their website:  http://www.zum-leben.de/

Life moves so quickly. Work, Family, Friends, Congregation - there's many obligations one has in ones life. Some things fall by the wayside. This blog is one of them. Posting events and pictures seems much easier thru Facebook. My apologies. So, what's new in our world? We have now shipped out 368 quilts to Israel! This has been amazing to watch the different quilts come together. The next shipment of quilts leaves California in September according to Dudley Goff, the Israel Food Outreach founder. Dudley spent 7 weeks in Israel this Spring distributing soup mix to the hungry and quilts to the survivors. He was gracious to share pictures of his visit with Susan Heagy of Abundant Hope International. When I see these pictures, I know all that juggling of commitments and priorities becomes clear: Serve the poor! Until next time - Le Hetriot!
