[Faith-talk] Sharing blindness skills at church

[Ericka]

Sunday we were teaching the children in Sunday school about the parable of the Mustardseed and how you have to believe in things you cannot see. Being new to the church, I decided that I would talk to my teacher I teach with Dusty if I could talk about trusting my keen and Blind the skills. It worked out wonderfully! Unfortunately we have very few children in Sunday school but I had great questions from kids three years to nine years. I told him to go and tell their parents and their teachers and Grandparents and anyone else that it was OK to ask us questions and to not be afraid of us. My co-teacher sent me some pictures however sharing them here wouldn't be of much use to most of you. But it really went great. My boyfriend and I are going to do a meet and greet/question and answer. One Sunday after the service during coffee time. We tried to get it scheduled during meet the blind month but it didn't work. Any day is a good day to meet a blind person in my opinion, so we have it scheduled for November. :-) Will share how it goes and we're still planning to have it taped on Chad's phone so we can share it with everybody. It will go on the church website as well. :-)
