INTRODUCTORY WORD THE FIRST edition of "Trading with the Far East" appeared a little more than a year ago, the United WHENStates had reached a critical in its stage history. The war had wrought great changes in our life. From a nation that had prided itself upon its independence, and, in a sense, even upon its isolation, we had emerged from the conflict bound by new ties of great economic and commercial importance. We had become world merchants. As our commerce had ex- panded, our perspective had broadened. Commercial relations had been established with markets which formerly were closed to us. American ships were familiar sights in ports where the Stars and Stripes had not been seen in half a century. The pendulum of American trade had swung to a high point. Would some supporting force, some expression of national resourcefulness, energy, enterprise, keep it there? Or, with the return of Europe to something resembling normal activity, would we fall back to our pre-war contentment in our economic self-sufficiency? In part, this question has been answered. Peace has been attained. Most of the nations have made at least a beginning in O *-3 rehabilitation.

    Our Recent Midweek Meditations Have Focused on the Disciples of Jesus Christ After His Resurrection

    Our recent midweek meditations have focused on the disciples of Jesus Christ after his resurrection. We have reflected on what perhaps their thought would have been as they remember their friend Jesus. This gave us a reason, to look at some of the places where Jesus ministry took place. And so we had an opportunity to share pictures from a trip to Israel that a group from our community took several years ago. So far, in the context of these meditations you have seen about half of the places that we visited. So, I am going to use the next several Mid-week meditations to tell you the rest of the story. And so we get started along the shores of the Mediterranean Sea. In the south section of Tel Aviv is a place called Jaffa. In Biblical times it was called Joppa. Picture is the Joppa Harbor. Joppa is the oldest harbor in the world. In 1000 B.C. Solomon had the materials for his grand temple delivered to this harbor and then they were transferred over land to Jerusalem. Joppa also was a place that Jonah fled to as he avoided the call that was before him, which was to preach to the people of Nineveh. Also in Jaffa is a place called Peter’s Church which commemorates the fact that Peter came from Lydia to Joppa and when he arrived he raised Tabitha from the dead. The next stop on our tour is Caesarea by the sea. It is about 40 miles north of Jaffa along the coast of the Mediterranean.
