I wanted to take the opportunity to share with you our goals in ministering to children. In all we do we are seeking to share God’s love by teaching God’s Word and modeling our love for God to the children. We have a phrase that we are beginning to use here in Children’s Ministries called “Most Important Truths” or MIT’s. The most important truths are what we are really trying to communicate, teach and model in this ministry. One of our goals is that all children who participate in any area of our preschool ministry will leave that area of ministry as they grow and move into our elementary area of ministry believing these three most important truths:
God made me
God loves me no matter what
God gave me His son, Jesus
Another goal is that all children who participate in any area of our elementary ministry will leave that area of ministry as they grow and move into Junior High ministry believing and living out these three most important truths:
God wants me to love Him
God wants me to trust Him with my life
God wants me to follow Jesus’ example
By intentionally teaching and modeling these Most Important Truth's we believe that we can be most effective in ministering to children.
What do you think about these Truth's and the idea of really focusing on teaching and modeling them for the different age groups?
