Missionary Children is the Church’s Mission outreach for children
Commonly known as Holy Childhood Association
In New Zealand this Missionary outreach to children has always run through the Catholic Primary schools. Following the example of the founder, we ask children to do two things every day:
The figure of a child has always had an irresistible and undeniable influence on everyone’s heart: the child’s simplicity, beauty and sparkling vitality seems a reflection of God’s life. Jesus who became a child among us fondly spoke of children. “Let the children come to me, and do not hinder them; for to such belongs the kingdom of God. Lk 18:16”
The Missionary Children provides assistance to particular Churches with the following objectives:
To assist educators to awaken and gradually develop in both children and adolescents a worldwide missionary consciousness, in order to guide them towards a spiritual communion and material sharing of their resources with children of other Churches, especially those in difficulty.
Many schools do much more, but the two features of prayer and personal sacrifice are important building blocks for young Christians. Everyone has something to give and to receive and their motto is: CHILDREN HELPING CHILDREN.
