Jesus calls us to be childlike, not childish. Our mission is to provide all our young people, from birth to maturity, moral direction, strong discipline, and loving spiritual encouragement, in order for them to grow in God's grace and knowledge. They are God's inheritance, and our joy to teach and raise up. In Matthew 19:14 Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these." We are told to be converted and become like little children. Our children represent the Master's view of humility, innocence and harmlessness. We thank God for the gift of young people. |
