THE MIRACLES CONTINUE
Thank you,my family are from Russia, Rumania, I was never adopted by the people that raised me. I was raised Christian. Went to Bible college. I met my Jewish family at 15. A few years ago I began feeling a pull towards my roots. I have continued to learn at a slow pace. I really would like to have a Jewish friend. Our family just observed our first Chanukah together. We had a wonderful time. We will continue to do so. I hung my mezuzah before Chanukah. I really need help with the daily observances. I am stumbling, but I know my G-od will help me, as he always has. He has performed miracle, after miracle through my life. Too many to name. Thank you,

A wonderful presantation;
As a long time fan of 'Old-Time Radio' Broadcasts, I found your rendition of the story of the Maccabees thoroughly enjoyable and well in keeping with quality productions. I look forward to hearing more of the same in the future.
