They were born in 1934 in Deir Debwan (West Bank) 72 days apart
They were the best of friends growing up
In 1958, they boarded a ship together for Brazil to find work
In 1962, they came to America and started work
They would live with their families in Lodi, Calif. for over 40 years.
Today, they are both back in Deir Debwan where they've come to retire.
Both have health strugglesBut they're both still the best of friends after all these years.Sunday:
Went to Church today. Was good to see everyone.
Pastor gave me 200 shekels
wants me to do some lessosn for youth on Monday nights
also wants me to preach for him when he's gone
said they would help me wit transportation costs
got glasses fixed -- for free
then went to pay for property tax -- took number 470 and the number on the board was just 360 or so. then a girl give me the number 377. I thanked her. Two girls with hijabs. I thanked them and wondered if they were my two angels. I always get angels in two
In church one guy told me tha 15 years ago someone told him there were many people in Deir Debwan who were hungry for the Lord but were scared
He encouraged him to come and preach in the village.
I wonder if I know any of them?
Will I meet them?
Lord, if this is of You, don't let me miss this opportunity
I got $500 from church in Cyprus again -- will send it out ASAP
