Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these." (Matt 19:14).
This verse is often interpreted as an invitation from Jesus to welcome children and value their presence. It is a reminder that everyone is welcome in the Kingdom of God, regardless of age, status, or any other factor. It teaches us to have a childlike faith, which is humble, pure, and trusting. It also highlights the importance of nurturing and protecting children, rather than hindering or neglecting them.
We value every child, and as such, our top priority is to teach them, love them, and provide a supportive atmosphere and resources to parents to help their children grow in their faith and navigate life's challenges. Please click on the link below for resources.
