In our church, we recently started doing the Lord's Prayer at children's time. Prior to this, it was done later in the service - after the children leave for Sunday School. It has occured to me that the children probably don't understand a lot of the words and concepts in this prayer, so I have decided that, over the next few weeks, I am going to do some Sunday School lessons on it for my group of 7-10 year olds.
What do you think? Is it appropiate for a city council meeting to begin with the Lord's Prayer? Is it appropiate to have any kind of prayer before such a meeting?

When asked if he is a secularist or an atheist, Peter Ferguson says he is “just a human.”
This morning I spoke with both my 91-year-old Father-in-Law and my Mom, who’s of the same generation (haven’t asked permission to publish her age!). Both had great questions and suggestions about the UN Climate Change talks.
