Junior High Teen "Suspended" for PRAYER during LUNCH

Junior High Teen "Suspended" for PRAYER during LUNCH

 

 

JMC Ministries Response:

As Christians there comes a time to stand up.

I do believe that this teen shouldn’t have stood up in a chair due to the fact of causing a bad influence to others. But the root of her reasoning makes sense to me. As for the principal giving such a harsh 2 day suspension I believe that is going to far.

 

This only goes to show that Christians around the world are being persecuted. Even teenage girls in junior high.

 

School has become a battleground for a spiritual battle of light versus dark. From not being allowed to pray to some schools even saying that you can’t wear Christian clothes.

Yes we do still have Fellowship of Christian Athletes and some other groups as well. It is not enough. The 1st amendment says we have freedom of religion and the press. Teenage rights have  been revoked due to the lower standards of society as a whole.

 

The time has come for Christians to unite and let their voice be heard. Teens across the country should take time to pray before school and during lunch. Bring your Bibles to school. Read the Word after your work is done, on the bus and at breakfast and lunch. I challenge you today to be the hands and feet God has called you to be.

 

ROMANS 1:16

For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ; for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth…..

 

MATTHEW 10:22

And ye shall be hated of all men for my name’s sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved.

 

ROMANS 12:14

Bless them which persecute you: bless and curse not.
