A Sign of the Times
May we come in?
Certainly, it’s not often I see Jews coming to a Christian church.
My name is Zaynab, and I’m a dancer with the Jews here. They needed a dancer and translator. I wanted to travel, and here I am, back again.
My name is Zaid, I’m the, um, priest here.
Oh, for the daughters? Or their father, Allah?
No, I’m a Christian.
Oh! I’m sorry. Should we leave?
No, it’s fine. Everyone is welcome, as my father said.
