With grief, anger, and pain. Every morning these last few days, we've looked at the news wishing everything could turn back in time. What Hamas has done--and the way it has done so--is surreal.

And it is clear that it will not end soon.

The terrorism, the raw brutality, the disregard for life, the kidnappings, the rapes, the beheadings, the slaughter of innocents in Israel is nightmarish.

We grieve deeply at the carnage, at the callousness, at the horrific barbarity inflicted during this time. We grieve deeply for all who have been terrorized and for all of the innocents who have died and who will die.

We pray for strength, hope, resolve, and safety. We pray for a peace that passes understanding.
