Dear Family and Friends,
The Jerusalem Center is one of the most beautiful architectural buildings in Jerusalem. It is an 8 story building built on Mt. Scopus-according to the Jews, and the Mt. of Olives-according to the Palestinians. If you come and visit the center you enter in on the top floor or the 8th level. Our apartment is on the 3rd floor, we, (Sue) do the laundry on the second floor, if we want to walk to the old city we exit floor 1, the Oasis (cafeteria) is on the 6th floor. Church, the concerts and the Branch Presidents office is back on the 8th floor, our housing and medical offices are on the 5th floor, classrooms are on the 6th and 7th floors.....Well, you get the point--stairs, stairs, and more stairs! We are getting our daily dose of exercise by just doing our responsibilities and the only way to get to where we need to go is to walk stairs. It's great!!! So part of your preparation for coming over to Jerusalem and the Jerusalem Center is to walk, walk, walk!This is the Oasis, the cafeteria where the students have their meals. There is also a lovely patio which overlooks the city where the students like to eat. We also use this for Branch parties and student activities.
We miss you all.Dad & Mom
