One at a time, the kids prayed for each other to be healed. No one had taught them to do this. But there were so many stories of Jesus healing people that they’d started asking, “Can we do it? Can we ask Jesus to heal?” And prayer for one another has been the result. This is a unique expression of church for kids and by kids. This is “Pizzachurch.”
