Off to Jericho

Beschreibung

"Yama the Llama carries balsam for his friend, Samuel. He is excited to go to Jericho where they will sell the balsam and visit his cousin, Suri the Alpaca. Suri works for the tax collector, Zacchaeus, who treats him badly, over-charges people, and keeps the extra money for himself. While Yama and Samuel are in town, a crowd gathers to hear Jesus speak. Jesus see Zacchaeus sitting up in a tree watching all the activity. Jesus invites him to come down from the tree and then talks with him about what he has done and how cheating people hurts them and the cheater. Zacchaeus understands that he is has done wrong, confesses, asks forgiveness, and repays the people 4 times what he took from them. He apologizes to Suri and promises to be kind and honest from then on. "Blessed are the poor in spirit; for theirs is the kingdom of Heaven." Matt 5:3"

Autor

"Karla Lowe-Phelps works with her husband, Russel on their cattle ranch in Southwest Missouri. Together they raise registered Black Angus for breeding stock. Her favorite times of the year are Spring and Fall when the calves are born. She and Russel have traveled nationally and internationally, meeting people and llamas in as varied places as Conway, Missouri and Belo Horizonte, Brazil! Karla was surprised to meet llamas in Australia. She especially adored one llama named Hannah, who was very loving and who inspired the drawings of Yama. Karla is passionate about children. She believes that showing children that they are the beloved creation of God is as essential to their growth as good nutrition. She and Russel raised three sons who are, now, the fathers of their 5 grandchildren. They have also supported eight children through ChildFund. Yama the Llama is dedicated to her grandchildren and the children of ChildFund. A portion of every book sold goes to support the health and education of Third World mothers and children. Karla is a retired Nurse Practitioner and is a "second career" hospital chaplain."
