Dear parents and faithful, today we will talk about one of the most important ministries in our church — children's ministry. It is not just a program or section for children; it is a place where we shape their faith, values, and dreams for the future.
In our modern world, where children face numerous challenges, it is important not only to meet their physical needs but also to provide them with a spiritual foundation. As we know from
Proverbs 22:6, the responsibility for raising children in faith lies with us, the adults."Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it."
The children's ministry in the church is a way for children to engage with Jesus Christ through teaching, prayer, and shared activities. We create an environment where children can learn about God, study the Scriptures, and build friendships with each other.
As part of the children's ministry, various activities are organized: Bible lessons, children's worship, camps, contests, and other activities that help children develop their gifts and talents. All these activities not only make learning an exciting process but also open the hearts of little ones to the Holy Spirit.
Importantly, we create an atmosphere of safety and support, where every child feels valued. Children can freely express their emotions, share their experiences and questions, and this is part of their spiritual growth. As noted in
Mark 10:14, Jesus Himself invited the children to Him, demonstrating their immense value in God's eyes."When Jesus saw this, He was indignant, and said to them, 'Let the children come to Me; do not hinder them, for to such belongs the Kingdom of God.'
We urge all parents interested in the spiritual development of their children to actively participate in the children's ministry. Your involvement and support can change the lives of your children and those around them. Together we can create a powerful community of faith, where every child finds their place in God's family.
Join us in this important endeavor, help us nurture and shape the next generation of believers. Let’s ignite the fire of faith in the hearts of our children together!
With God's blessing. Yours in Christ,
The Children's Ministry Team
