Wednesday Morning - Aboud

We stopped in Aboud, Mouss's childhood home, where he and Chris were reunited with friends and family that they had not seen in 14 years.  We visited the Aboud Greek Orthodox Church established in 332 AD where we were greeted by the priest who spoke of peace and love in the midst of chaos.  
 



The women of the church welcomed us with tea, savory cookies made of cornmeal, flour and thyme, a carob pudding, harissa, an almond and honey pastry, and flatbread with olive oil and spices.
