I am so glad you are getting to have this experience. Surviving great tragedy can cause people to become silent - seemingly passive. But you are right that it actually shows great strength and perseverance in the face unspeakable evil. Hi Jessie, what a powerful story! I am so glad you are getting to have this experience.

It was an incredibly moving story. I see courage here too and so much graciousness as they have chosen to host an American student, saying YES to life, when it would be so easy to say no. May this conversation bring a blessing. We are so proud of you Jess and so happy that you are having this incredible opportunity. Keith, Ann and family....We devour the posts and photos. Many many thanks for all you are doing. You and all the SSTers are in our prayers. Thank you for sharing this post. It was an incredibly moving story.
