We used to say, "You're only as well as your worst off child." But what happens when you have 200 to 300 children? You form a community of concern for the welfare of every child and their families. You reach out and extend a caring hand. You thank educators and all those whose job and personality it is to take care of our children. You withdraw from this culture of narcissism that corrodes and erodes our common humanity, the image of God within each and every person. And you hug your children, thanking God for the gifts of health we are granted everyday. "May God who blessed our ancestors, bless this child (insert name) and grand her/him full healing. May the Holy One preserve him/her from all harm. Praised are you, O Lord, Who heals the sick of God's people."
