SUCCOT


Succot is pretty much the coolest holiday celbrated here. The Jews remember that the exodus into the wilderness and how their fathers had to stay in tabranacels that were mobile – they had no real home but that God protected them and provided for them. So – right now there are zillions of succots lining the street in Jerusalem. SO….. what do awesome 20 year olds in a cramped space do??? BUILD A SUCCOT! We made it out of mattresses and sheets. And then we watched Pride and Predjudice in it while we ate popcicles and bon-bons!!! It was AMAZING! (PS- please ignore that tiffany still has her mustache on J)

Loved your entire blog, Kendra. It brought back so many sweet memories for me. I remember seeing and doing everything you have done, except for the hiking at 2 a.m. to Mt. Sinai (thank goodness!!)

It looks as if you are having the time of your life. You will remember this time always. Please keep in touch. Everyone from DI says "Hi!!" and wish you well.

Keep growing your testimony.

Love,

Debbie
