Children's
Ministry
Jesus Christ showed
special compassion for children during His earthly ministry and we
strive to follow His example.
The Bible says in Mark 10: 13-16, People were bringing little
children to Jesus to have him touch them, but the disciples rebuked
them. When Jesus saw this, he was indignant. He said to them, "Let
the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the
kingdom of God belongs to such as these. I tell you the truth,
anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child
will never enter it." And he took the children in his arms, put his
hands on them and blessed them.”
With a generation growing up on PlayStaion3 it is easy to forget
that children can have a good time with just simple games. Can you
image what it would be like if a carnival was taken to a poor
community where the children have to get their food from the city
dump? It would be like taking Six-Flags to the most rural area in
America.
It is easy to make a kid smile in the name of Jesus – they are
desperately waiting for someone to demonstrate love to them. People
just like you are running a soft-toss game, painting faces and
painting finger nails, making balloons, and dancing to the sounds of
the native country.
