Pastor Bruce Burnside has traveled to Palestine several times
in the past twelve years. Each time he sees the refugees in more desperate situations and more devastation. But dispite living conditions that would make most of us ring our hands in despair, the resilient Palestinian people find ways to eke out sustenance despite great odds. The people are very generous even though they have very little and go out of their way to be hospitable to Bruce and his fellow travelers. Bruce has documented much of what he has seen in the past years in a beautiful series of slides. You can view these slides by clicking here or on the image below. See the truth about what is going on and why there is a need for the funds this silent art auction produces. Bruce has written small narratives to help identify what is going on in the images shown.
