　　上次降临节的时候，。新牧师来自纽约，在那天的布道当中谈到了这个问题，他让大家调整看法，给那些在这个困难时期无助、无援而且饱受痛苦的年轻人以帮助，其中包括帮助瘾君子、年轻的单身妈妈以及那些大部分人不愿理睬的不良少年。无可否认，牧师的这段话容易引起争议，但他的话引起了大家的兴趣，于是我们决定适应新形势，为社区建设做一些新的尝试。

。他们不想让那些捣蛋鬼们邻近独守空房的寡妇、小孩子、孤儿以及其他人，因为教堂已经很擅长于照顾这些人。新牧师对此表示接受并且答应对教堂进行单独的扩建，供他开展帮助青少年的工作使用。他还同意遵守所有传统管理程序，服从他们的最高权威。

　　对教堂工作重点的适应取得了巨大的成功。那些问题青年开始在田比连教堂的新建筑中进进出出，每个人脸上都带着微笑，对生活重新充满了希望。尽管牧师与一群志愿者们一起工作可能更明智一些，每个青少年都已经开始把他看成是他们不曾有过的父亲。生活得到了改变，需要得到了满足，来参加活动的人越来越多。教会管理部门对此非常满意。

　　明天又是降临节。我们改变观点已经有一年了，我们有很多东西值得庆祝。
