Just for clarification, the man Hans was referring to in the previous post is a homeless man in our community who professes the Rastafarian faith. He often spends time on the corner near our house and is very friendly. He talks a lot about Jesus and how he climbs the mountain every morning to worship God. Often we aren't clear exactly what he's talking about, but we do know that God often chooses us to provide him food. We know he's a vegetarian, so we bring him a lot of peanut butter sandwiches and fresh fruit. We don't know a whole lot about the Rastafarian faith, except that they worship a god named Jah and that the religion is often associated with Jamaica, but has roots in Africa. And that it involves lots of dread locks.
