It’s Photo Friday!
Here’s a moment to treasure — two kids playing along an empty streetcar track on a rainy afternoon in Jerusalem.
“Do the skies themselves send down showers? No, it is you, LORD our God. Therefore our hope is in you, for you are the one who does all this” (Jeremiah 14:22). Shabbat Shalom to all — have a wonderful weekend.

Photo Friday visits Haifa
Beautiful Haifa
Haifa, the third-largest city in Israel, is nestled between the northern slopes of Mount Carmel and the Mediterranean Sea. Its home to Elijah’s Cave, where some believe Elijah the prophet hid to escape the wrath of King Ahab. Today, Haifa is frequently visited by cruise ships.
Here we are looking out at the Mediterranean from a high terrace in Haifa. You can understand why some consider this port city the most beautiful in Israel!

Journalism the Arab world is not used to
Israeli-Arab journalist Khaled Abu Toameh points out a fact that speaks volumes about freedom of the press in Israel — and the lack thereof in the Arab world:
Comments (1) »It is ironic and sad that a number of Palestinian journalists have to move to Israel to be able to express themselves freely and without facing intimidation. Over the past two decades, these journalists, who once used to live in the West Bank, have moved to Jerusalem after being harassed by the Palestinian Authority.
Just last week, Hamas detained five Palestinian journalists in the Gaza Strip and confiscated their computers and documents. When Israeli Arab journalists see what is happening to their colleagues in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, they are reminded of how lucky they are that they live in Israel.
