Un nouvel ami

A Sunday school teacher warmly shakes the hand of a newly introduced boy while classmates sit in a circle of small chairs and look on. An open Bible rests on the table beside flowers and a framed picture of Jesus welcoming children, connecting the classroom welcome with Christ’s own love for the young. The scene presents Christian hospitality in a children’s ministry setting: a visitor is received not as an outsider, but as a friend invited into fellowship, learning, and worship. The image reflects the Gospel teaching that children belong near Jesus and that the church is called to receive them with grace, patience, and joy.
