    Two questions:

    1) If the spirit (whichever spirit you look to for guidance) called you to take on the mission that Irena unselfishly choose and, knowing what would most certainly happen if you were caught, would you answer the call.

    2) Al Gore?

    I would hope so but only God knows the answer.

    I visited Yad Vashem, the Israeli Holocaust museum, three years ago and there is a walk there lined with trees to remember those non-Jews who risked to save Jews during the war. It is a striking place in the midst of a terrible history.

    I would also hope so if that's what the Lord called me to do.
    I admire and pray for our missionaries that are out there doing such work.
    They are truly a rare breed and spiritually strong to be able to do such work for the Lord.
    God bless them all.
