The scriptures are replete with stories of welcome, those blessed moments when one person welcomes another and the blessings for both welcomer and welcomee are rich and bountiful. Today's reading from 2 Kings gives us one such story and the Gospel of Matthew 10, makes it clear hospitality with its double-blessings is part and parcel of Jesus' teaching to his disciples.
