But what I love about it, is experiencing the outpouring of love and support from the parish parents and other adults who don't have children. Last night at the parish Christmas play practice there were 4 other parents packaging rosary bracelet kits: a cut piece of hemp, a bead and a wooden fish, in lunch bags. Four hundred kits await the Saturday crew.
When I got home, a had an email from a dear friend:" Dinner, tomorrow is on me." A blessing, as I hit the ground running today only to stop around 8 PM. Dinner? Cook? What's that? Now I know. And it arrives at 3:30 -- perfect timing.
Friday, all day is set up. Parents and some adults without children will gather to make sure the boat in rocking on Saturday.
This event, this revolution is already having an effect on the community and it hasn't even happened yet. Already it is a success. The wave is dissipating across the community. By Saturday we should be experiencing a tsunami of community service.
