Bubbly, playful, at times loud, more than fifty elementary-aged children gathered at Las Piñas United Methodist Church sanctuary in one of Metro Manila's barrios. Few of the children sang with confidence; others observed and shyly went through the motions of an action theme song chosen to kick off Vacation Church School. The atmosphere was almost infectious and touching to an observer as children's voices, in unison, praised and worshipped. Soon, children and their youthful teacher leaders broke into age-groups for appropriate and focused discussion-sharing of Jesus's unbridled, unconditional love for His beloved disciples and disciples-to-be. They sported get-to-know activities, and through games and storytelling strategies, they talked about sharing a wonderful kind of love, agape. Simple and humble, the sanctuary, turned into makeshift classrooms, was surely fit for character check and 'soul fishing' geared to transform perspectives of very young minds about a God who lived among humankind, and loved all!
