I've often said that one of my favorite things about the congregation I serve is that we have all generations of people here.
Since having children I've rejoiced that my boys have personal relationships with people 100 years older than them (yes, we have several over 100 in our congregation!) and relationships with people of every age in between. These relationships combined with their wonderful grandparents relationships make a difference.
I was reminded of my joy at this multi-generational group today because of what Sarah wrote. I was reminded of it not only for my children, but for myself.

Wow, several over 100? What a gift!
This post reminded me of one of my favorite songs on Jars of Clay's newest album, "Shelter"; the lyrics of the chorus go like this:
"In the shelter of each other
We will live
We will live (Never walk alone)
In the shelter of each other
We will live
We will live (Your arms are all around us)"
