Fr. Hossam on an earlier visit, making music together.

Once again, we were scheduled to worship at the Anglican Church (no preaching this time, but definitely worship leadership). Once again, it was impossible for Fr. Hossam to get here. This time, shots apparently hit very close to the Anglican Church compound in Nablus. As he worked on his sermon last night, he was pinned down in his study. We're not sure when we would see him again - nor is it clear exactly how he's supposed to get to his new assignment in Nazareth, depending on when it starts. So we went to worship at the Latin Church of Visitation - the music is getting better and better there. Abuna Aktham has worked very hard to add to the sense of worship there.
