New Friends, Food, and Fellowship


St. Vincent actually has a pretty big community of people from Syria.  Since we don't have TV, we don't see the news.  But apparently there is much unrest in Syria.  Please pray for their country and the war going on there.  This sweet family is from Syria.  The boys go to WISE preschool.  Their family owns a shop downtown.  And we have become friends.


Their family invited us to a special place called Tito's not far from us.  It has the most amazing Syrian food.   It is called shawarma.  It is like a sandwich in homemade pita bread with chicken, seasonings, mayo, lettuce, and tomato.  It is a very relaxed environment outside and best of all had a kids playground.  So, we actually got to enjoy adult conversation while the kids played away nearby.
