On Children, Water and Aquarium Maintenance ... By Bishop Paul V. Marshall

"Whenever I can, I sit on the floor of the church for a few minutes and visit with little children. I have no illusion that I can teach them much or that they share my sense of humor. All that I want to happen is for them to experience that the person who is the identified leader of the community notices and cares about them. If they 'learn' something else, that a bonus, but the basic message is that they are accepted, that they are a valued part of who we are."
