A World Fit For Children
This morning we are celebrating the children. The 1994 General Council named a special Children's Sunday to take place on a Sunday close to November 20th (to tie in with Canada's National Child Day and the 1991 ratification of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child). "Jesus called a child, had the child stand in front of them, and said . . .'The greatest in the Kingdom of heaven is the one who humbles themselves and becomes like this child. And whoever welcomes in my name one such child as this, welcomes me.' " (Matthew 18:2-5,.)
