...but sadly others aren't.
As the news has probably already broken in America, we want to let everyone know that we, and as far as we know, our friends and loved ones in Jerusalem, are okay. There was a shooting at a boys yeshiva in a religious neighborhood in Jerusalem. So far reports are that anywhere from 7-9 are dead and 30-something are injured. It is unclear if the terrorist gunmen are dead or alive or if they are captured or at large. There are many conflicting stories on the various news sources. We won't know exact details until tomorrow, at the earliest I imagine. We definitely feel shaken up and incredibly sad by what happened, and our thoughts and prayers go out to those who are suffering and our hopes remain that peace will prevail and that, like our blog theme says, there will be shalom in and from Jerusalem. We will be in touch again soon. Be well.

I am so glad to hear that the two of you are fine. This is such sad news.

At first, the media here were only reporting that it was a seminary but not that it was a boys' school, so I was concerned about Rachel... I'm glad to hear that both of you guys are okay.
