Wash my feet

Ps Aaron did a pretty interesting thing at service yesterday. To install the new assistant Zone Supervisors, he washed all their feet in front of everyone. There was video-recording of the whole thing.

Sometimes, I wonder, is it necessary to use such cliche visual representations? I'm now taking Marketing 101 module in school, so inevitably, my first thought was 'this is a good marketing strategy!' Of course I felt bad after that because no one else but me would entertain such ideas.

Alternatively, he should have just made the ceremony a private thing and that would maybe be more meaningful for the AZSs themselves. If you were there, you would agree with me that there was a huge effort to make it seem like a big show; Music, lights, video streaming etc. On top of that, the audience, or maybe just me, felt a little awkward and alienated. In the middle of it all, people started talking among themselves!

Nonetheless, I'm proud of my friends who have become the AZSs. It's a tough mandate but I'm sure that God is with them and things will change. Some things already have and I'm so grateful for that.
