In this issue of Word From Jerusalem, you’ll read about Yarden and Shiri Bibas and their red-headed babies, Ariel and Kfir, who became symbols of the struggle to return all the hostages abducted a year and a half ago and whose bodies were recently released to Israel. You’ll also read about how the people of Israel, despite their deep anguish, remain resilient and are collectively working to rebuild their lives and heal from the unimaginable trauma they have experienced. Finally, you'll find encouragement in the fact that, despite the surge of antisemitism that erupted after October 7, 2023, immigration to Israel continues to swell—a testament to God’s faithfulness.
