We welcome all the parents and little friends of our children's ministry! Today we will talk about how important it is to raise children in faith and how some biblical stories can serve as a true source of inspiration and strength for them.
Children, like sponges, absorb information from the world around them. Therefore, it is important that what they hear about God is not only interesting but also understandable to them. The Bible is filled with stories that can help children comprehend the greatness of God's creation and His love for us.
For example, the story of Noah and the Ark is very suitable for this purpose. Children are captivated by the adventures that took place during the construction of the ark and the storms they experienced. This story can be seen as an example of faith and obedience to God's commands. When God told Noah to build the ark, Noah did not doubt but joyfully obeyed God's command.
Genesis 6:22“Noah did everything just as God commanded him.”
This can serve as a good reminder for children about how important it is to listen to and follow God's word. This story also helps explain that even in difficult times, when chaos reigns around us, one can find peace in doing God's will.
Another exciting story is Jesus and the Children. When the disciples tried to push the children away, Jesus, on the contrary, welcomed them with open arms. This is a vivid example of God's love that knows no bounds. It is important for children to know that in God's eyes, they always hold great value.
Mark 10:14“When Jesus saw this, he was indignant. He said to them, ‘Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.’”
In this case, we can teach children about openness and kindness, as well as the importance of having a simple, childlike faith in God.
Dear parents, we invite you to join our children's ministry to explore the Bible together and share God's blessings. In our activities, children will not only learn more about God, but they will also have the opportunity to meet each other, build friendships, and learn important moral values in a safe and loving environment.
May our children be surrounded by accompanying blessings, and may their hearts be filled with love and goodness. Together we can remember, memorize, and fulfill God's commandments, which will serve as guiding principles for their entire lives.
The Lord says that incredible things can be achieved with childlike hearts, so let us work together in this important ministry!
