Building the Church

      You would think after a week being with children that I would want a break from them. Well, that's not the case. I love to get into different places and learn what is out there and what I need to do more of. I went to a center this morning where the poor and homeless people come to church and to get their food and other things. They have church there on Sunday and I got to help with the children Sunday School. It was neat because I like Sunday school and I love children espically the needy ones. It just fitted me perfectly. I could share the Message without being scared or thinking what someone else thought because I knew that they were there for that reason.
         We (a friend and me) had 3 little preschoolers. A boy and 2 girls and they were so fun. I played mainly with one of the girls and the boy. They were playing with wooden building blocks. They told me that they were building a church with the blocks. There were actual people in the church and a playground outside the church. They had some help by me but it was just cute seeing that and seeing their thoughts go. They are very imageative. Then they took down the church to build a castle.
         I didn't think about it then but I'm thinking about it now. Isn't that what today's world is like? We build up churches and people and then those people go out into the world and tear down the churches and build up castle like things whether with money or other things. There is a connection there somewhere if you really think about it. It was fun and the children were all very talkative.
         The other little girl liked one on one time. She "sewed" with animals and played with the animals a lot. She was sad when she first got there and I tried to comfort her but nothing I did worked so the other teacher tried and she was happy by the end of Sunday school. She played mostly with cardbroad animals putting string in and out of their holes. The animals were wearing their necklace (aka her bracelet) and they even came over to look at the "church". It was just so cute! She also sung a song randomly while "sewing" the animals. Cute and Beautiful!
            I would go back in a heartbeat and I think I am every last Sunday of ever month because that is when the group I went with does it. There was just 6 of us. My passion is the less needy children of the world. I wish I could do something on my own to help them out. I don't want a big company or place because sometimes you get the vision lost in that thing that is now big but was never meant to be too big.

Challenge: What are you doing to help your community? You could pick a certain group or just help wherever you can. Just get out there! :)
