    Hi Jasmine... I was thinking about your pastor and his family as they travel the long grey road of mourning... I pray that the Lord would be a shield about them and that His presence, provision and peace would be a refuge to them (especially to your pastor).

    Yes! I have long wondered what would happen to that poor jeweler whose store Jadis trashed and looted. Hopefully Mr. Holmes would be able to help him as well to recover some pieces that she (possibly) scattered or dropped while rampaging through London.
