On Nov 17th we will be honoring the United Church of Canada’s Annual Children’s Sunday in an All Ages worship service created by Rev. Miriam Spies for the National Church focused on Celebrating the Churches’ Commitments to Children: “In God’s Own Image.”

Children’s Sunday is an opportunity to lift up, the needs and celebrate the gifts of young people in our own communities and around the world.  One of the priorities of the World Council of Churches is to encourage meaningful
participation of children in church life.  Jesus touched the children, blessing them with the love and grace of God. With blessing comes the sense that one is important and valued for who they are in that moment, not for who they might become. It is a reminder of the blessing you received at baptism, that you are a beloved child of God, and might continue to discover the gift of that identity.

Scripture:  Deuteronomy 11:18-21
