CHILDCARE
Why Childcare Matters & How We Nurture Our Kids
In Psalm 127:3-4 it says, “Sons are indeed a heritage from the LORD, offspring, a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the sons born in one's youth. Happy is the man who has filled his quiver with them. They will never be put to shame when they speak with their enemies at the city gate.” By presenting the Word of God to children in an exciting way that can understand, and by leading them into a relationship with Jesus through weekly services, special monthly events and activities, there can be a generation that grows up loving God with all their hearts.
Teaching children about ministry is not enough. By involving them in service to others through effective ministries that they enjoy, children can see that Jesus can use them. They are important to Christ now! Children are not only the church of tomorrow, they are the church of today.
