Title: The King's Great Feast Page 1: Osh, Ish, and XL were sitting with Jesus. "What are you teaching about today?" asked Osh. Page 2: Jesus said, "The kingdom of heaven is like a king who prepared a wedding banquet for his son." [Matthew 22:2] Page 3: Ish, who loved parties, asked, "What kind of food did he have?" Page 4: Jesus continued, "The king sent his servants to call those who had been invited, but they refused to come." [Matthew 22:3] Page 5: "Why wouldn't they come if they were invited?" Osh wondered out loud. Page 6: "That's not very nice," Ish agreed. "A wedding is a happy time." Page 7: Jesus said that the king was angry and sent his army to destroy those who refused and burn their city. [Matthew 22: 6-7] “Then he sent his servants to go out into the streets and gather everyone they could find." [Matthew 22: 9-10] Page 8: The king's servants brought all kinds of people, both good and bad, and the wedding hall was filled with guests. [Matthew 22:10] Page 9: "But," Jesus said, "when the king came in to see his guests, he noticed a man who was not wearing wedding clothes." [Matthew 22:11] Page 10: "Why wasn't he dressed for the party?" Ish asked. "It's important to wear your best clothes to a wedding." Page 11: The king had the guest without proper attire thrown out. [Matthew 22:13] Jesus then told Osh and Ish, "For many are invited, but few are chosen.” [Matthew 22:14] Page 12: XL explained that Jesus was using this parable to teach about God's invitation to be part of His kingdom.

The Rise of Liam Rose Liam Rose first stepped onto the ice at age 4, and from that moment, he was hooked. Now 13, he plays for Moon Middle School and the Arctic Foxes as a defenseman known for his hard work. Despite his potential, Liam struggles with confidence, often questioning if he’s good enough. His coach encourages him, saying, “Hockey is about more than skill—it’s about believing in yourself.” The Arctic Foxes enter a Michigan hockey tournament to face tough competition. Before the first game, Coach surprises Liam by assigning him to forward, urging him to use his speed and skill to score. Though nervous, Liam rises to the challenge. Midway through the second period, he intercepts the puck and scores a stunning goal, feeling the thrill of contributing offensively. In the second game, tied late in the third period, Liam doesn’t hesitate. He dekes past the goalie and scores the game-winner. In the third game, Liam returns to defense, playing a pivotal role in shutting down the opposing team and advancing the Arctic Foxes to the championship. The final game is intense, but Liam seizes his moment. Late in the game, he finds himself open in front of the net and scores the winning goal. The Arctic Foxes become tournament champions, and Liam is swarmed by his jubilant teammates. As the team hoists the banner, Liam realizes he’s proven himself—not just to others, but to himself. Coach’s words echo in his mind: “You’ve got what it takes. You always have.” From that day, Liam knows hockey is more than a sport; it’s a journey of self-discovery and confidence.

我名叫李文祺,生於香港但在美國讀書長大。前陣子我決定回到香港老家龍躍頭走走,探尋自己的家族根源。 當我踏入這個小村莊時,立即被它獨特的氛圍所吸引。陽光灑落在斑駁的青磚牆上,散發出一股歲月雋永的味道。傍晚時分,我漫步在狹窄的主巷上,映入眼簾的是整整齊齊的中式厝舍,屋簷前懸掛的古老木雕和陶塑裝飾更是令人讚嘆。 走近仔細觀察,這些房舍無不精心設計,斗拱、檐板上的細緻雕刻猶如置身於一個時光隧道。我忍不住伸手撫摸著這些曾經見證過歷史的磚塊,感受它們散發出的沧桑感。原來,這些防禦性極強的圍牆和護城河,都是為了對抗當年肆虐一時的海盜們,守護著這片淳樸的村莊。 沿著蜿蜒的小徑來到一座宏偉的宗祠,松嶺鄧公祠。進入大殿,我被那精緻的木雕、壁畫和斗拱深深吸引住了。置身其中,我仿佛感受到了鄧氏先祖的英勇事蹟和崇高精神。這裏無疑是這個古老家族的靈魂所在。 漫步在寧靜的天后宮前庭,我聆聽著空靈的鐘聲,便會不自覺地沉浸在寧謐祥和的氛圍中。這裏保存著珍貴的青銅古鐘,每次擊響都訴說著這個村莊的動人故事。我不禁想像,多少善信在此虔誠懇求,又有多少鄧族子弟在此祈求平安順利。 這個被時光深深烙印的龍躍頭,無疑是一個值得細細品味的寶地。走在這裏,彷彿可以穿梭時光,感受到前人創造的文化價值和歷史傳統。我衷心希望,這片養育我家族的淳樸土地,能永遠保持它應有的神韻和魅力。
