Hello, Friends —

I'm closely monitoring the dangerous situation in Israel created by Hamas terrorist attacks. Ginger and I are praying for peace and for the safety of U.S. citizens in Israel. 

Please use the resources below to stay updated if you are a U.S. citizen in Israel or share them with any family or friends who may need assistance there. Additionally, if you are in need of immediate assistance, please contact our District Office at (850) 479-1183 or [email protected].
