As our verse describes, the righteous Samuel grew up in the service of God,
and found favor in all those around him. He went on to anoint the first Kings of
Israel, Saul and David. The name Samuel means "God has heard" referring to God
answering the fervent prayers of his mother, Hannah. Today in Israel, child
victims of terror need intensive therapies in order to overcome the trauma and
to be able to "grow and better themselves." The Shiloh Israel Children's Fund
runs over 500 group therapy sessions each year, and utilizes innovative therapy
methods such as music therapy, animal therapy, art therapy, horseback riding
therapy and drama therapy to help heal children who were victims of
terror.
