Today in MAD (Music, Art and Drama) for Mission we learned about refugees . . . persons who don't have a country in which to live . . . and we learned that even Jesus was a refugee when he had to go to Egypt with Mary and Joseph to be safe. We made more school kits for UMCOR Sager Brown and heard a wonderful story about two friends who shared the one pair of sandles they had while living in a refugee camp (thanks to Nancy Guhl). Most of all, we learned that prayer is very important . . . prayers of thanksgiving for water and homes and parents and our church . . . and prayers for peace around the world and for the necessities of live for persons who live in refugee camps around the world. And we prayed prayers of thanksgiving for the United Methodist Committee on Relief that takes our school supplies and sends them all over the world with the love of Jesus!
