Another Janice story, if I may…
As every Director of Christian Education knows, it is sometimes hard to manage the flow of supplies that are used for Sunday School Classes. Whether paste, construction paper, crayons, markers, scissors, or glue, these things seem to disappear from the supply closet fast.
Janice, who served as our DCE at Fox Chapel Presbyterian Church for many of the years when I served there, had a way to slow down the misappropriation of supplies from the big walk in closet that served as our store room for such things.
Up in one corner of the room, where two walls met the ceiling, she put what looked to be a security camera, with a little hand lettered sign that read:
“The Eye of God”
The only thing was, the camera was not really a camera; Janice had made it out of a small box from which protruded an empty bathroom tissue roll.
It was effective in its purpose, nonetheless!
