For the past few weeks the year 6’s have been learning about Social Justice. Each class has made a blog and we are madly working Away at them to provide each other with what we know about Social Justice. On our blogs we are responding to bible passages.
When I went to the age care facility I thought it would just be just a bunch of old people which just want to tell you a bunch of random things and a smelly place. When I actually went into there I was right about the smell but the people were just lovely. The first person I went to she was just absolutely lovely and friendly she didn't talk much at the start but as she got to know me she started talking more and we became good friends. I met two more groups and they were as lovely as the first lady.
10When the apostles returned, they reported to Jesus what they had done. Then he took them with him and they withdrew by themselves to a town called Bethsaida, 11but the crowds learned about it and followed him. He welcomed them and spoke to them about the kingdom of God, and healed those who needed healing. 12Late in the afternoon the Twelve came to him and said, “Send the crowd away so they can go to the surrounding villages and countryside and find food and lodging, because we are in a remote place here.” 13He replied, “You give them something to eat.” They answered, “We have only five loaves of bread and two fish—unless we go and buy food for all this crowd.” 14(About five thousand men were there.) But he said to his disciples, “Have them sit down in groups of about fifty each.” 15The disciples did so, and everyone sat down. 16Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, he gave thanks and broke them. Then he gave them to the disciples to distribute to the people. 17They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over. My response to that passageHow does the passage relate to your actions of community service?
Jesus broke up the food then gave it to the twelve disciples, then the disciples gave the left over food to the five thousand people. This act reminds me of the soup truck because they also give food to the people, but the people that the give food to are homeless. |
