Dear Friends,

Salaam and good afternoon to you from Jerusalem. Salaam means peace, in Arabic, and it is something we are all working very hard to achieve, here in the Holy Land.

I work for the Diocese of Jerusalem, as the Development Officer. This means that I work mostly with the hospitals and schools that we support as part of the Church's ministry in this community. I am from California, but have lived in Jerusalem since 1995. I think I am very blessed to have two such wonderful homes!

I would love to hear from you, and help you to make friends with some of the young people in my community here. My e-mail address is devedjer@netvision.net.il

Merry Christmas to you all. I will keep each of you in my prayers. With my warm regards,

Nancy Dinsmore
