Supervision Is Necessary
In many churches, the children who are serving at the altar are called Altar Boys and Altar Girls.
Well, it is good that they love to serve at the Lord’s table.
However, they should not be called Altar Boys or Altar Girls.
The children should not be allowed to go to the altar alone, without the presence and supervision of a responsible adult minister, lest the children make noise, play or quarrel at the altar.
They should be called Temple Boys and Girls.
And they should be well trained in all righteousness and holiness.
