Fr. Hosam and Marthame sing Christmas songs.

Our ecumenical drive continues. We spent an evening with the Anglican priest of St. Matthew's Church in Zababdeh, Father Hosam Na'oum. We ate together, shared dreams for ministry in Zababdeh, and sang some Christmas songs (it's never too late). These are the collegial moments that refresh us (or is "steel" a better word?) for the schoolteaching part of our work. Do we have school tomorrow?
