How do they know we are Christians?

I had pretty much made up my mind that I would travel to Ayacucho, Peru, in April of 2009, with Cross Cultural Solutions. I had one reservation (besides the cost!). CCS sounded like a great organization, but they were not a Christian organization, this wouldn't be a mission trip, this was strictly a volunteer trip. Then one Saturday night in church, we sang this song.

We are one in the Spirit, we are one in the Lord

We are one in the Spirit, we are one in the Lord

And we pray that all unity may one day be restored

And they'll know we are Christians by our love, by our love

They will know we are Christians by our love

We will work with each other, we will work side by side

We will work with each other, we will work side by side

And we'll guard each one's dignity and save each one's pride

They will know we are Christians by our love

And they'll know we are Christians by our love, by our love

We will walk with each other, we will walk hand in hand

We will walk with each other, we will walk hand in hand

And together we'll spread the news that God is in our land

And they'll know we are Christians by our love, by our love

(They'll Know We Are Christians By Our Love, written by Peter Scholtes, 1968)

I guess that answered that question.
