A visit from Central New York

The Presbyterian Ministry at the United Nations is hosting a seminar from the Central New York Presbytery Partnership Group.

Twenty-one students and four adults have gathered to explore issues related to child labor and the trafficking of children in labor.

Opening worship celebrated what children should be able to do. Allie Naskret, field education student with the Presbyterian Ministry at the United Nations, led the service.

A visit to the United Nations followed.

After lunch, the group discussed labor and work – and the work they do. A speaker from the International Labor Organization spoke on child labor and trafficking. The group then considered case studies of individual children.

Today the group will consider the question: “As followers of Jesus, what can we do?” Watch for more details.
