Nick, Helen, Sam and Ben |
This was the week that the youth of America (Nick's favorite word) populated the UM House. Helen, Nick, Ben and Sam were the center of attention, even though the 'economy' was playing across the street in the Amphitheater. They participated in Boys and Girls Club, Robotics and Geo Caching as the porch looked on frustrated by the state of the economy but refreshed by the carefree presence of these kids.

Back at the UM House the Chaplain, Wendy Deichmann, Pres. of United Theological Seminary in Dayton and our guests listened to speakers attempt to explain the financial crisis. With no answers available they watched the youthful exuberance of our kids and wondered why the world worries; the youth of the world will find a way out of the mess we created.
