V. Conclusion
A park for our neighbors is a way to show them
that Jesus cares about them. Jesus wont appear
to them in person. He has entrusted us to be his
ambassadors. We are already Christs
ambassadors. Its just a question of whether we
are good ambassadors or bad ones.

A Key Premise . . .
If you want to touch someones heart, show an
interest in their children.
15
. . . and clear guidance
Whoever welcomes this child in my name welcomes
me, and whoever welcomes me welcomes the one who
sent me. -- Luke 948
