apprentice – #85

michelebhutton,

I can’t stop thinking of the World Vision  s**t storm that has been raging these past few days.  Three or so days ago the American branch of World Vision attempted to change their hiring practices to be inclusive to gay individuals. The outcry from “Christians”  was so terrible that yesterday they recanted.  Now arguments run fierce and guess who losses?  Vulnerable children who I guarantee do not give a rats butt who you are sleeping with. So sad.  Incidentally Canada’s branch of World Vision has different policies, it is inclusive and non discriminating.
World Vision does good work The Meeting House has been closely involved and we have seen with our own eyes the positive effect that sponsorship has.

BOHEMIAN Bohemian n, adj (person) leading an unconventional life. I love photography. It can speak for me. Taking pictures allows me to communicate where words and proper punctuation fail me. It captures something I want to save and treasure. Perhaps I was able to see something others were not...magical. I am a mother of two strange and wonderful children, guardian of a ridiculous cat, a small tribe of squirrels and a posse of possums. I love anything unique and creative, a firm believer that art exists to comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable. I love to make anything, sewing, painting, home renos, art journaling and of course photography. I am thankful for my blogs as an outlet and I am truly pleased that you have taken the time to read a little bit about me, I hope one or two of my pictures makes you smile.

  1. Not totally up on all bible references but this one came to mind when I heard about people withdrawing their WV support:

    ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’
