In June 2019, our Jewish Messianic congregation in Munich «Etz-Haim» («Tree of Life») traveled to a similar congregation in Stuttgart, «Adon Yeshua», to celebrate together the joyous Jewish holiday of Shavuot. And on Shavuot, they read the amazing Hebrew story of Ruth (Ruth in Hebrew). This story gives us today hope even in the most hopeless situations. And all the more so if we hear it from the mouth of an eyewitness!
