開BLOG了

十月慶祝牛一,回望過去日子, 充滿上帝恩典;

半個紀住了十個城市,港澳美加東西岸,

誰想到

現竟搬進另一個西岸

這巴勒斯坦自治區的小鎮并稱之為家?

應付教學,遷入新居,處理家務的當兒,

草草開BLOG,為這下一個半百留個紀念,

邀請你也來陪我們走走這一段路!

Emmaeus

Thank you Lord, for coming close to walk with us at a time when faith is a challenge!

Settlements

I took this photo while helping my friend look after her sick daughter.  It should have been a joyous time for Christmas in Bethlehem。Yet the view of the encroaching Israeli settlement outside the window is suffocating...

A Bedouin Village

Went to visit a Beduoin village.  It was a heart breaking experience to meet these peaceful people, their simple life and their hope--to lead a life of their ancestors for generations in this land.  Hearbreaking, for such a simple hope is under threat every day.  With the loss of their land owing to the coming of Israeli settlers, their hope is but a dream.

Samaritan passover

I used to think that the Samaritans were people of the past, with the most famous one. "the good Samaritan" being only a fictitious person in Jesus' parable.  What an experience for me to meet them and learn that they have been practising the Passover sacrifice according to the Mosaic Law without interruption all these years!

my neighbour

探望我的鄰居。真不敢相信今天還有人用耶穌當日流行去的Aramaic!
