sacred journeys

A couple of days ago, our kids’ school experienced a ‘lock-down’ because of a huge fight on the soccer field. To my understanding, it started between an African-American girl & an Armenian boy — but it escalated from there along ethnic lines. The African-Americans & Hispanics vs. the Armenians.

Here is an on-line article on the school from the local news station.

Racial Tensions Run High at Middle School — Racial tensions seem to still be high at Thomas Starr King Middle School among the students who are primarily Hispanic, African-American and Armenian.

Pray that my children can bring peace (maybe in just one relationship, to just one child). That they can know what to say, and how to say it, they would know when to intervene in a situation, and when not to & that they would be safe !
