Children’s Ministry

There are benefits of having children’s church, Sunday School, and all kids ministry programs. Here are some benefits listed below:

• It is in support of godly parenting. The church was never meant to be the exclusive faith teacher of children. Instead, God’s plan was for the two institutions (church and family) to form a partnership.
• It helps new families get connected with the church. Even when a new family comes into the church, they still need help to get connected.
• It provides families with meaningful shared experiences. This is true especially when the whole family can participate in events like vacation Bible school or summer camp.
• It can help them learn to love others. The 2nd greatest commandment is to love your neighbor. We must teach this as a way of life, because it doesn’t comes naturally.
• It allows the church body to use their talents and spiritual gifts. Releasing the ministry potential of lay people is often a key for church growth.
• It can help counter balance worldly influences. Everyone knows the harmful influences present in our society. Kids need positive influences to tip the scale.
• It accommodates the unique educational needs of children. We all know that children learn differently than adults. Targeted teaching for kids helps accommodate these differences.
