(Excerpts from an e-mail we received Aug 6th in reference to the mob confrontation Aug 1st and the fire Aug 4th)

 

Dear Eddie and Lura,

 

We love you guys so much and we are so honored to know you.  We respect what you did, Eddie.  Believe me, R* and the boys would have gladly joined you.  It's one thing to turn the other cheek when someone makes a mistake.  But this is no mistake and we don't believe that we have a calling to be doormats in Messiah.  This is despicable behavior and it needs to be publicized, punished and put down completely.  You are doing the right thing in contacting a lawyer and we'll be praying for favor and success in your lawsuit.

 

A* and E* and I read your website and viewed the photos together and we just finished reading both your letters.  A* and E* want to come to Arad to help and we do too! 

 

We want to give you our videocassette player and we're also asking some friends for donations for the projector and TV and cash too. 

 

We love you!  Shavuah Tov and we'll be in touch in the coming days.

 

C* and R* and the kids
