LABC Update – Wednesday, October 11, 2023

Family,

The world is paying attention to the Middle East right now. Thus, I call your attention to the fact that LABC is hosting a program tonight at 6:30 focusing on the experience of Yousef Aljamal, a Gazan author and Palestinian refugee.

To hear the stories of our global neighbors is an important expression our Christian faith.

Also pertaining to the Middle East is this helpful statement by The Reverend Dr. Jeff Woods, General Secretary of the American Baptist Churches.
