The Nigeria Baptist Convention joined Baptist Churches worldwide to celebrate this year's Children Day with the theme: Becoming a good Disciple through Love and Unity.
It would be recalled that Children day is celebrated on the 27 of May each year.
Children day is an international holiday that was first established in Nigeria in 1964.
The date it is celebrated varies with different countries.
The day marks a celebration of children, raising awareness for issues that affect children and helping us appreciate that they are the future for our societies.
The theme of this year's Children day in Nigeria is " Investing in our future means investing in our Children".
The Nigeria Baptist Convention decided to celebrate children day on the 21st May, the last Sunday before Saturday May 27, that is slated for children day.
At every Baptist Churches in Sapele, children were decked in their best attires as they graced the celebration and ministered to members of their Churches.
At Ebenezer Baptist Church, the children developed the theme in the form of News casting with correspondents from Abuja and Lagos bringing reports from their ends.
In summary, the children emphasised that Brotherly love is the bedrock of a true disciple.
Highlights of the events was the dance presentation by the children and News presentation.
The Children were prayed for at the end of their presentation.
