Candles of Hope
Since the abduction of IDF soldiers Gilad Shalit, Ehud Goldwasser and Eldad Regev more than five months ago, the citizens of Israel and pro-Israel communities around the world have been praying for their wellbeing. This Hanukkah - the holiday of lights – Ynetnews, in coordination with the Jewish Agency and the World Zionist Organization, invite you to light a Hanukkah candle in their honor.
As individuals our light is weak, but together we will shine brightly and light a huge flame to express our common concern and hope that Gilad, Ehud and Eldad return safely home.
So, I lit a candle. It may not seem like much, but it's more than Olmert has done to bring them home, and their families will see the outpouring of support. 10045 have been lit so far, you can light one by clicking on the picture.

I love this idea, Linda. I lit a candle, and I hope many more do.
Every day, those three young men and their families are in my prayers.
