Children’s Sabbaths Celebration
October 9 at 11:00 am in the sanctuary
In conjunction with the Children’s Defense Fund https://www.childrensdefense.org/ , Children’s Sabbath is a multi-faith, nationwide celebration that engages places of worship across the country in focusing prayers, worship, education programs, and action on learning more about the urgent problems facing our nation’s children exploring sacred texts and teachings that call us to love and protect children, responding with outreach and advocacy, and—most importantly–inspiring new, year-round action to improve the lives of children. It is the goal to help amplify the voice of faith communities calling for justice.
At Pullen, on October 9th, this day we will highlight and affirm the gift and gifts of children in our midst. It is a day set aside to celebrate children as active participants in the life of the church. Children will serve as worship leaders throughout the service, including preaching, singing, reading Scripture and more.
