Comment: A simple act of welcoming someone goes farther than we can imagine. When we stop and welcome someone into our lives, we open ourselves up to new relationships, to being changed, and great memories. These are not things that can be taken away either. Jesus tells his disciples at the end of this chapter, preparing them to go out into the world sharing the good news, that if they are welcomed, there will be a reward. The reward comes from encountering the Good News through their interaction with the disciples. Gerald and Piggie have a tough decision to make. They are playing catch one day when Snake comes and ask to play catch with them. Elephant and Piggie look at each other and make the decision to welcome him in to the game. Now Snake doesn’t have arms and this leads to a hilarious story as these three try to figure out how to play catch with no arms. After some trying, Gerald and Piggie must decide if they want to keep playing catch or keep playing with Snake and adapting what they are doing. They choose to include Snake in an out of the box way. Gerald, Piggie, and Snake have been changed by their interaction with each other. What began as a simple choice to welcome someone in, turned into a relationship." - Thanks to Elizabeth Boulware Landes, Associate Pastor for Children’s Ministry and a graduate of Union Presbyterian Seminary, for writing the Revised Common Lectionary Links this week.
