Tikvah Rabah

Funny how G-d works. What started out as a conversation between Glenda and Dudley of Israel Food Outreach, (we thought we were going to be able to use their cargo ship to get our 400 + hats/scarves to Israel), unfolded to become our newest project: Making quilts for the Holocaust Survivors in Israel!
