I can’t wait for Christmas this year. Christmas, this year, is going to be full of joy because I will be spending it with the ones I love in North Carolina. My grandparents and I are going to be going to North Carolina to spend Christmas with my Uncle and Aunt. Last Christmas we woke up early and spent the morning eating breakfast and talking with each other. We are going to spend all day with each other, catching up about our past and what has happened in our lives since the last time we were…

I began the journey with the text by reading the entire lectionary for Advent. I rested on each briefly on a daily basis over the course of a week gradually narrowing the selections to Luke 2:1-10. The verse that called to me from the text was “Mary treasured all these words and pondered them in her heart.” It speaks to Mary’s role as the mother of the most important and influential child. She wants to treasure and remember the special moments as her child grows, but for me as a Christian,…

One’s inspiration can be sparked from anything: an inspirational teacher, a caring parent, or a strict librarian. Children will go to great lengths to mimic their role models and try to become exactly like them. When I was a child, I looked up to my teacher. Mrs. Flathau seemed to have a smile on her face at all times, and she would try her best every day. On a daily basis, my teacher would pass out papers. I would immediately raise my hand to pass them out when she asked. Mrs. Flathau would…

11,250. There’s no nice way to look at it. 11,250 kids struggle to get enough food to eat each and every day in Fayette County, Kentucky (God’s Pantry, 2016). The parents of 11,250 young boys and girls are scrambling fruitlessly to find a way to bring food to the table.

Contrasts in Living – Cuba vs. the United States of America An island of great natural splendor and cultural beauty languishes in the Caribbean Sea just 90 miles south of the tip of Florida, directly separating the USA mainland from its own territory of Puerto Rico. This island, called Cuba, was once a popular “playground” for the wealthy Americans who recognized the economic potential of this exciting and intoxicating country.

The statistics concerning worldwide hunger are staggering. The World Food Programme reports that approximately 795 million people worldwide suffer from hunger and malnutrition [1]. To help put this number into perspective, one in nine people are hungry. More than 3 million children under the age of five die because of poor nutrition annually. What is the Difference Between Hunger and Malnutrition? Hunger is a signal created by the body to let you know that it is time to eat. Once you eat, the…

The homeless are the “fallout” of our postindustrial economy (Henslin 275). Reading further led me to believe that they are part of a social class, known as the underclass. Welfare, food stamps, and food pantries are their main support. Later, there was a section that perfectly answers the question of homeless mothers entitled “The Feminization of Society”. I have learned many times during the course of the completion of the project. What probably made this…
