Last Sunday our RE children could tell me which Principles related to cooking for Lucio Perez, a Guatemalan man who has been in sanctuary at the First Congregational Church for the past two years. In looking to link the corresponding principles I found this on the The First Parish in Lexington (MA) website:
Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, and Violet.
- Respect the importance and value of each person
- Offer fair and kind treatment to everyone
- Yes to spiritual growth and learning together
- Grow by exploring ideas and finding your own truth
- Believe in your ideals and voice your vote
- Insist on justice, freedom and peace for all
- Value our responsibility in the web of life
The RE children named Principles 1,2,4,5 and 6.
After a very quick explanation we got right to work and divided into three stations – one for salad making, one for lasagna making and one for pie baking. By the end of 45 minutes all of the children had taken a turn in the three stations and we had three significant dishes for one of our families to take home to bake and deliver on Monday. Thank you to those who donated the food for us to prepare. Lucio – we hope you enjoy the food!
