St. Thomas has become our church family and it is going to be terribly hard to leave. I have been the Christian Education Director for the last three years and in that time I have had the opportunity to work with many wonderful people and to share some very special moments. I have grown to love each child personally, and I pray for them all daily. I absolutely love working with children and it has been such a joy to see them nurtured and loved so much at St. Thomas. I cannot begin to count all the opportunities that we've had together to experience Christ.
Children are so open-minded and have an insatiable desire to learn and to be taught.
When they walk through our church doors it is so important that each member of the church help them to feel loved. Jesus then took the children up in his arms, put his hands upon them, and blessed them. He took the time for each child. He held them close to His heart and prayed for them. We should all take time to know the children in our church, they are not just the future of the church, they are a part of the church today.
