Religious Education Connections
When...
- When I saw an adult speak harshly to a child and pull
the child along with determined force, I did nothing. ....It
was none of my business......
- When we had Guest at Our Table, I was very casual about
urging contributions, or putting in anything myself. ....Others
would contribute......
- When we saw a street person collecting cans, I didn't
stop the disparaging remarks about "wasted" people....
After all, I wasn't one of them.......
- When someone asked about being forgiven by God, I
changed the subject.... My belief was different from theirs......
- When I attended the discussion last night, I was sure
to have my say!....MY ideas are important....
- When I wasted natural resources without a thought,
I realized that my actions were not in harmony with my beliefs.....
And I vowed to change my actions ...children are
watching.
