This last Sunday 160 children showed up at church! All the children arrived and dozens of adults and teens packed the church basement of the Historic Catholic Church in downtown St. Michael where Alleluia Lutheran Church is meeting until we build our new church.
During worship dozens of children came forward for the children's sermon time. I was so happy to see all the children and to meet their parents. We are so blessed at Alleluia with such awesome families and so many people to help out.
Jesus said, "Let the children come to me, for it is to such as these that the kingdom belongs." Children are loving, curious, energetic, and trusting- just a few of the characteristics Jesus is alluding to here in his teaching.
How curious are you about Jesus and the things of God?
How energetic are you in pursuing discipleship opportunities?
How trusting are you of God?
Thank you, Lord, for the gift of children!
In Jesus' name,
Pastor Durk
