When Did My Child Become a Missionary?

QUESTION: What percentage of the preschool and elementary age children are missionaries?

ANSWER: 100% of them.

Our children as missionaries means sending them to school each day is a short-term mission’s trip. That puts a whole new spin on school being a trip around the world. Have you ever thought of all the different student (and staff) nationalities your child comes in contact with every day? (In the Gahanna-Jefferson school district alone, there are forty nationalities represented.)

One day something small in your child eyes may make a positive difference in another child’s life, or bring about a lifetime friend. Just think a child’s simple invitation to church being accepted could result in the salvation of an entire family.

This week look up PrayerZone on the Internet. One thing PrayerZone teaches is that every time you car slows down in a school zone pray for the students (and staff) in that school building. Pray that bullying will be minimized; learning will be optimized, and that the love of Christ will be demonstrated in and around your child.
