Reconciliation


Two young ladies from the seminary made a point of attending Vacation Bible School for several hours.  They sang, prayed and ate with us.  They even helped in the kitchen. They returned again the next day, despite their other responsibilities. I was touched.

Alex, (pictured above) said she knew how some members of her cohort had behaved toward us, and she apologized. "We don't want you to have a bad impression of the Czech people." 

I assured her I did not. Sharing space isn't easy, and language and cultural differences make it more complicated.
