Building Bridges of Understanding and Friendship

Last Sunday, I had the opportunity to visit a Sikh Temple with a wonderful friend and her family.  She is a scholar of World Religions, and was invited to learn more about Sikhism, and talk with women of this faith.  We received a warm welcome, and met many friendly people.  We learned a lot in such a short amount of time, just by listening and observing.  Yes, I wore my missionary tag, and it caused a few double takes.  Hopefully they could see love and kindness in my eyes, as I smiled and listened.  What were some of the things I learn that day?  We are all God's children.  We long for peace and love from within.  We share many principles and values.  I left their service feeling happy that I had made new friends...and met more sisters.
