And Jesus asks the crowd in today’s gospel: “Which of you wishing to construct a tower does not first sit down and calculate the cost to see if there is enough for its completion?” As I watch the online registrations for KidsRelig fill up our spreadsheet and open the mail to count permission slips and checks, hear from teachers ready to volunteer again and others willing to volunteer for the first time, I get the sense that we’re building something here, and it’s not a tower. I also get the sense that whatever the cost in time, talent, energy and money sacrifices are being made for the completion of what we’re just beginning to build. It is so very good to watch.
