Assimilation

Last Saturday, our church celebrated the 100th anniversary of the English District with a wonderful meal based on a German Oktoberfest. Adults cooked for the event, and the youth helped serve and clean up.

At the tables, someone asked our pastor, "What ever happened to those foreign kids--the ones from Russia?"

Pastor Rogers looked up. "Well, the oldest one is in the kitchen helping my son run the dishwasher." He pointed across the room. "Over there are several more of the Stahlke kids." Then he smiled and told the guest, "And one of them just refilled your coffee cup!"
