"God gives ear to the despairing words of our nation's 13.3 million poor children. God heeds the sighs of our nation's more than 200,000 children who are homeless each night. God hears the cries of our nation's nearly 9 million children without heath insurance who may not ne able to see a doctor or dentist when they need to. Isn't it time for us, God's people, to do the same? Dr. David Davis pastor of Nassau Presbyterian Church in Princeton, New Jersey, preached about the ritual of baptism, "We should never be able to dip our hands in the water without hearing the cries...not the cry of the baby being baptized... but of the forgotten ones.""
