Pentecost 20
"Suffer little children to come unto me" - Mark 10.14
Jesus both cares for children and recognizes their value as an example to his disciples. Some have brought children to Jesus so that he can lay hands on them and pray for them. The disciples have rebuked these people, perhaps to protect his time and energy from a request that is not urgent.
Our term activities - Meditation, English Conversation Group and Thursday Chinese Morning Prpayer & Bible Study recommence this week.
