Watch out! Danger! You have to look hard to see my desperate face while I hold onto the sign. My colleagues think I'm fooling them.
Yes, I did work while traveling the continent!
Listening as well as doing. Here is an intense conversation captured by the camera. I met so many people who had deep and thoughtful stories to tell about their own eating and drinking experiences around the daily table.
01:51 pm - What It Is All About
This 18 month little boy and his mother were with us in Sydney. After we had enacted the story of the Feeding of the 5,000 with a reader's theater style, I noticed he was sitting there where I had placed the bread and fish. I just happened to have my camera handy. He didn't blink as I took his photo just as he was eating the bread. A story about a child who gives his bread and fish to be multiplied so all may have food in abundance was lived out as the this little boy so freely ate of the bread in the very center of our learning community.
The daily table that embraces children, and where children are free to come to the table themselves, is an extension of the sacramental table of the Lord's Supper. How beautifully this child embodied the ultimate love of Jesus where none are turned away, where the ones whose voices are not heard, are heard and loved in the eating of bread in the faith community and at the daily table.
Thanks be to God.
