On Sunday we used to come to the Feast of Resurrection at the Romanian church in Port Kells. And so do our elders and our children. We seek Christ, we meet in Christ, we enjoy each other in a Romanian way, as we are taught at home. Besides us, our English-speaking children have also learned to meet in a Romanian way, like us, and see how their joy is full. Sunday School brings them together, unites them, makes them friends. The foundations of some friendships are put now for a entire life and this is a great thing. Maybe even bigger than the tower of our Church ...

In more than 14 years since the school was set up, several generations of children have been raised, who now they are starting to have their own families and their own children and who will continue the tradition of the Sunday celebration. Diana was 14 when the school started. Now she has a two-year-old girl with a sun-kissed smile and eyes like the sea, which gathers all the children in the Church around her, like a real fisherman of ... children.

At Sunday School there are 30 children today, both younger and older, between 5 and 19 years old. At the end of the Divine Liturgy they took the Communion and now they have a meal together.

After the RLord's Prayer that the children say together, Cristina reads the Gospel of the day. Now, at the beginning of the new spiritual year, the children are talking about Miraculous fishing catch. It is the first sermon of the Savior to men, it is the beginning of preaching. Peter, the one who all his life pursued with his father in fishing, has now been chosen by Christ to be a fisherman. How's that coming? He pulls the ship ashore after a miraculos fishing catch as a result of obeying, with the nets full of fish, but leaves everything then to follow Him.

Cristina and Ada translate the Gospel to the children. Questions are asked, answers are sought. Their role as coordinators is not easy at all, but sometimes they also have a lot to learn from the children and then their effort is rewarded. Each of the children participates in the lesson according the age, the energy and interest. In the meantime the dishes in front of them are filling and are emptying ... The parents are among them seeking to be as invisible as possible, but useful in the preparation and serving of the meal, and their help and sacrifice are essential. They also listen to be prepared in case the child has something to ask at home. And it happened not only once.

Father Cornel says that just having a child asking a question about what they saw or heard in church today is really a victory. Because a once-asked question will create a stir and end up bringing the good fruit together with finding the right answer.

In their way of learning by playing, they are caught in the nets. Cristina presents them a blue panel like the sea on which the ship of Peter, where he receives Christ, is located. Peter obeys the Savior and goes deep to throw the nets. They are filled up with fish in a miraculous way. Ada has prepared for each child a white paper fish that is just waiting to be colored as beautifully as possible. Not only the little ones get in the game, but also the ones from the table of seniors (17-19 years). Each one writes its name on its fish and places it on the board in the boat. It is as if they are caught not by Simon the fisherman, but by Peter, the fisherman of men, in the name of Christ.

The game is short, only 20 minutes. They would like to talk about theirs staff but they have no time. Focus on the game because there is a short time until big people come and they will fill the room with their abundant and colorful talks.

This is an ordinary Sunday School feastday; a feastday of the Resurrection, which we are looking for eagerly, with the younger or the older, Sunday after Sunday.
