All
of
the
people
who
serve
in
our
children’s
ministry
are
screened
and
trained.
They
have
a
heart
for
God
and
for
children.
The
goal
of
our
children’s
ministry
is,
first
of
all,
to
give
the
children
a
positive
experience
in
the
church
family.
Our
leaders
strive
to
help
each
child
feel
safe,
accepted
and
special.
Many
of
the
activities
are
designed
to
foster
the
building
of
healthy
relationships.
Our
leaders
guard
this
jealously.
It
may
sound
backwards
to
some,
but
children
need
to
have
fun
and
to
have
fun
with
others.
Without
this
element
in a
children’s
ministry,
learning
(and
God)
becomes
a
terrible
bore.
The
lessons
focus
the
children
on
Jesus
Christ—who
is
their
Savior
and
Friend.
We
teach
the
children
how
to
have
a
relationship
with
Jesus
and
to
treat
Him
as a
real
person
who
cares
for
them
and
is
active
in
their
lives.
As
the
children
grow
older,
they
are
increasingly
taught
how
to
discover
God
for
themselves
and
to
know
how
to
listen
to
Him.
The
greatest
need
any
person
has
is to
know
Jesus
Christ
personally.
This
is
the
ultimate
goal
of
our
children’s
ministry.
