Day 26: Let the children come

Posted on

Our opportunity

During the current school year as many as 281 children through fourth grade have attended classes on a Sunday morning at GBCC.

Our direction

Matthew 19:14 — Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these."

Our value

Our purpose is to share the hope of Christ with each child through age appropriate curriculum, exploration, and discovery. Kids are given the chance to experience God through exciting activities, meaningful times of response and blessing and creative storytelling. The Ripple Initiative will open up new opportunities to serve more kids in expanded spaces.

Our prayer

Father, thank you for the chance we get to teach children about your great love. We pray that you would prepare the hearts of kids every Sunday morning to receive the good news that Jesus brings. Bless our staff and volunteers who give their time and talent to work with our children. Encourage more dedicated volunteers to step forward and be part of this ministry.
