I love the last line of the story - "There isn't one of them that hasn't made my eyes well up," - that's how I feel just reading about this event. I've heard about it in the past and I think it is an amazing opportunity.

What a beautiful opportunity for various spiritual traditions to come together to bless those who serve. I wish we could come together to serve the community in more projects like this.

What a lesson to be learned. Instead of always being so rigid about who's Faith is the strongest, here we see a simple and yet beautiful gesture of our common humanity. Regardless of our belief system, we can hear that Voice from the distant past saying "If you love Me,then feed My sheep". Thank you for a great article.
