Don’t Be FooledBy Charles C. Finn

Don't be fooled by the face I wear, for I wear a mask. I wear a thousand masks, masks

that I'm afraid to take off and none of them are me.

Pretending is an art that is second nature to me, but don't be fooled…”

“PLEASE DON’T BE FOOLED BY ME.

What am I masking?• One out of every three girls

and one out of every four boys is sexually abused before they turn 18.

•

• Half of all children born to married parents this year will experience the divorce of their parents before they turn 18.

• Five children in America die each day due to child abuse and neglect.

• Every day in America, five children or teens commit suicide.

Even so, it is not the will of your father which is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish.

“Our studies show that the faith principles and practices that a child absorbs by age thirteen boldly shapes their spirituality for the duration of their life.”

“We spend roughly 68 times more money per capita on

caring for the average felon than on the church’s

ministry to a spiritually hungry child.”

“You can encourage me to remove my mask…

So do not pass me by-- please don't pass me by…

In this lies my hope, my only hope, please help beat down those walls with firm hands, but with gentle hands--for a child is very sensitive.”
