章 46:  FEEDING THE CHILDREN

"Young ones, sit down. I will give this bread to every one of you, no one will miss." Yosef told the children when he saw their eager looks to partake of the bread.

Obediently, the children heeded his words and sat down.

"It is a good practice to introduce each other before we eat. I am called Yosef Gideon, a Knight Templar from the Knights Templar Order. Hope you have heard of us, we protect the Christian pilgrims and the Holy Land from unbelievers." Yosef introduced himself.

He unsheathed his sword, and swung it back and forth in the air, "we are Christian warriors, like God's angels on earth." He tried to make the children relate to his work.

"It is now your turn to introduce yourself to me." He told the children. "We shall start with you." He pointed to the eldest child in the room.

"My name is James Aram, am ten years old Sir." The boy said while looking at him with an impatient gaze to have the bread shared.
