Our Purpose
The Children's
Ministry of
the Global Heart is a Special Focus Organization in affiliation with
the United Church of Religious Science, and the United Centers for Spiritual
Living.
The
children of our churches deserve the same spiritual guidance and support
that we give to adults.
OUR
CHILDREN NEED SPECIAL ATTENTION
We have neglected our kids in ways different than we may have imagined.
This is a neglect of the soul, and of the heart, and of the spirit.
Look at the current situation in the United States:
-The
extraordinarily high suicide rate for even very young children.
- Every sixty minutes a child is shot, or shoots a gun found in the
home.
Gun violence accounts for over 4,000 deaths and over 12,000 injuries
yearly among children.
- The
over-reliance on psycho-tropic drugs to heal youth, with an estimated
8 million children now being given these medications.
-850,000 children are missing from their homes; the majority are runaways
and every year thousands of them show up in morgues with no history.
-The
violence of our society, the war, the incarceration of 2 million men
and women, the erosion of simple human kindnesses.
WHAT
WE DO
By praying with children, and providing them with spiritual counseling
in an atmosphere of unconditional love, we offer a kind of heaven on
earth for them. In this work we may be changing the course of events
from a violent and fear-based society to a place, grounded in love,
where all people are respected and children recognized as fully-orbed,
spiritually whole, and worthy of the best possible arena for growth
and spiritual development.
