Gleaning: Top 10 nominee Black Gospel Play Association Playwriting Contest

One of God’s greatest commandments is “Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself”.

Gleaning was an early form of a welfare system. It was the collecting of leftover crops from farmers' fields after they have been commercially harvested or on fields where it is not economically profitable to harvest. But there are many forms of Gleaning. It doesn’t have to be crops. It can be a hand out of any kind. People today are ashamed to take a handout but that handout could be a blessing to the receiver and the giver.

This is the biblical story of Ruth in today’s setting. The story tells how women then and now take care of one another through hard times. It’s a story of faith, forgiveness and triumph. It shows the responsibility that the older generation has to the new generation. The play is sure to give everyone something to think about in today’s life journey.
