Three Girls Pray

My Religious Experience:

Praying by Three Girls

This episode happened during our visit to Stockton this summer. My three grand daughters (6, 7 and 10) went on a fishing excursion, caught three small Blue Gills, brought them home alive, and put them in a tub of water.

Unfortunately one died, so they decided to dig a hole and bury it in the back yard. After doing so, they placed their hands together, bowed their heads and chanted "Namu Myoho Renge Kyo" three times.

What little children say and do was such a surprise to us.
