Let the Little Children Come to Me, Do Not Hinder Them

Jesus said: "For the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these." (Mark 10:14; Matthew 19:14) In Sunday School, we center on Christ, accompanying children and families in growing in truth.

"Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these."

— Mark 10:14 (NIV)
