"But above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection." (Col. 3:14)

In Oceanside, California, Mr. Alter's fifth-grade class at Lake Elementary School made headlines when the boys in the class decided by themselves to shave their heads. They did so, without embarrassment, because one of their own, Ian O'Gorman, developed cancer and had undergone chemotherapy. His hair began to fall out. To make their friend feel at home, to feel one with the crowd, all his classmates agreed to shave their heads, with their parents's permission, so that upon his return, Ian would not stand out from the class. No one would know who the "cancer kid" was.

Let us love one another with a pure heart fervently.
