~ REFLECTION ~ We gather together today in our own local communities, while millions of others gather together in their communities all over the world. When Isaiah wrote that the LORD comes to “gather nations of every language,” could he have imagined over a billion believers, millions from a hemisphere not even conceived of by those of his place and time? Let us cele-brate that hundreds of years and thousands of miles away, we are welcomed just as much as people in Isaiah’s or Jesus’ time.

~ REFLEXION ~ Aquí nos reunimos hoy en cada una de nues-tras comunidades locales mientras que millares de otras personas se reúnen alrededor del mundo en sus propias comunidades. Cuando Isaías escribió que el Señor viene “para reunir a las naciones de toda lengua”, ¿podría ha-berse imaginado a más de un billón de creyentes, millones de ellos de un hemisferio que aún ni era concebido por los de su tiempo y lugar? Celebremos que, pasados ya cientos de años y miles de millas, aún somos bien reci-bidos tal como lo fueron los del tiempo de Isaías y de Jesús.

Did You Know? What constitutes a concern worth reporting? Parents have a responsi-bility to report concerns they have about another person’s behaviors or actions that could put their children — or any children — at risk. These concerns are anything that makes the parent uneasy or uncomfortable, or anything that a child reports made them feel uneasy or uncomfortable. Some examples of seemingly little things that can be worth reporting

include: A teacher covering her glass classroom door with art-work, eliminating the ability to see into the classroom from the hall; a youth ministry icebreaker activity, where teens have to pass a mint candy from person to person using only toothpicks in their mouth, despite the discomfort of some participants

Sabia Usted? ¿Qué constituye una preocupación que vale la pena reportar? Los padres de familia tienen la re-sponsabilidad de reportar las inquietudes que tengan sobre los comportamientos o las acciones de otra persona que pudieran poner en riesgo a sus hijos, o a cualquier niño. Estas inquie-tudes son cualquier cosa que haga que el padre o la madre se sienta incómodo/a, o cualquier cosa que el/la niño/a reporte que le haga sentir incómodo/a. Algunos ejemplos de cosas aparentemente pequeñas que pueden valer la pena informar incluyen: Una maestra que cubre la puerta de vidrio de su aula con obras de arte, eliminar la posibilidad de ver hacia adentro del aula desde el pasillo. Además, una actividad para romper el hielo en el ministerio juvenil, donde los adolescentes deben pasar un caramelo de menta de persona a persona usando solo palillos de dientes en la boca, a pesar de la inco-modidad de algunos participantes.
