Booma and the Gazan Family

This is a photo of Booma greeting the Muslim family after they had just come through the Erez Crossing out of Gaza. The 4 year old boy has leukemia and Booma fought for permission for the young boy, his mother, and his older bother to come to Israel for a bone marrow transplant since the brother was a match. We weren't fast enough with our camera but we are thankful for this photo from our friend, John, so we can remember Booma along with this Gazan family in our prayers. It is also a wonderful reminder of the love that we should have for others that crosses ethnic, political, and religious lines.
