Children’s Sabbath – Today we focus on children as we read a familiar passage from Mark 9 where the disciples have argued who among them is the greatest, and Jesus uses a child as a lesson to say that in order to be first, one must be last, putting on the mantle of a servant or a child. For our services today, children’s choirs are featured, Bibles are handed out to children, and children serve as liturgists, readers, and preachers. The two services feature different children’s choirs and different children as liturgists, giving us a glimpse at how many children attend our church. One constant in both services and in several capacities and roles is the Rev. Maggie Jarrell, our Pastor of Children and Families.
