Caring for kids

The good Lord is full of surprises! Before I retired nearly fourteen years ago I would have ridiculed any suggestion that I should teach children in schools. But God led me to do just that on a voluntary basis and I am still teaching Christian RE in a state school. Among seven or eight hundred children who have passed through my hands are two who have become RE teachers themselves. Praise the Lord! I think that 95% of the children do not attend church and so the little I do is likely to be all the Christian teaching they get. I pray for grace and wisdom for the task. Amen.
