Bischop Sabbah, who last week visited Christian and Moslem sites that were bombed, tells local TV about the pain he observes on the faces. He advises the local Christians not to leave. The question of staying and leaving keeps everybody busy. A Dutch couple working voluntarily at the Freres School as drama and music teachers seriously consider to leave. They like to stay but the woman is pregnant and understandably worried about the influence of the tensions upon her child.
Daily life goes on.
During an evening, Mary asks me to bring diapers for Jara. Shooting starts but soon subsides. When I proudly return with the diapers, Mary is not impressed. Other concerns keep her more busy. Her father is now a few days in hospital.
