All people are God’s children.

Not just Caucasians. Not just Blacks.

Not just Native American. Not just Hispanics.

Not just Oriental. Not just Asian.

Not just Gentiles. Not just Jews.

Not just you. Not just me.

God made us all. He loves us all.

We are brothers and sisters made in His image.

When did we go astray?

When did we forget this fundamental truth?

God separated people at the Tower of Babel.

Because we thought ourselves superior.

Because we thought ourselves beyond needing God.

We were wrong then and we are still wrong.

It is time to turn back to God.

It is time to reach out to our neighbors.

It is time to know our neighbors.

It is time to respect our neighbors.

It is time to love our neighbors like sisters and brothers.

It is time to love as Jesus taught us to love.

It is time to turn back to God,

To love and worship God and His Son, Jesus Christ, who can save us all.

It is time to turn back to God, to receive His love.

To show that love to all our neighbors.
