Eide shoma mobarak everyone! It’s Nowruz time, the biggest celebration of the year for Persians. They set a special table called haft seen with symbolic items and gather around with their families to exchange blessings for the new year. I wrote more about it at my personal blog, refreshrenewexplore (link). Listen in on Obama’s Nowruz address to Iran here (link).
We’ve been asking friends and family to pray for us as Ali continues to apply for jobs and we hope to be connected to a great place in coming months. Great news – Ali has a third interview with a company who will be flying him over to Belgium in a couple of weeks, and he is doing other interviews via telephone and skype intermittently. Thanks to those of you who have asked blessings on our behalf.
Finally, a few photos from our Nowruz celebration. There were many more people around the edges of every photo, though these make it look like a calm house.
