Trigger warning. This is hard to read. Today I visited the massacre sites.  Be’eri and Nova I didn’t take video in Kibbutz Be’eri. I was uncomfortable with photos anyway, because there’s something about disaster tourism that doesn’t sit right.  1/12

I met Ron’s mom Maayan and brother last month with our clergy mission from our Jewish Federation of Greater MetroWest NJ. We promised to remember him and advocate for his release, along with the release of all the remaining hostages. This is an awful evil thing. 2/5

My art project. I’ve been working on a graphic novel set in #Jerusalem 500 years in the future, after an earthquake. It’s not very good. But I’ve enjoyed the process of learning about sketching, storyboarding, inking, & more. This is the first time I’m actually sharing it online.

We're watching the developments at Congregation Beth Israel in Colleyville with concern. We pray for the hostages inside the building, and note with gratitude the role of law enforcement in keeping the Jewish community safe.

And like the Maccabees fighting the Greeks, we draw on a strength that goes above and beyond nature. A strength that relies on faith and community. Something we keep thinking about these past two months. Eight is a test. 3/5
