12.22 - 1st through 5th graders are in church!

At Emmanuel, we want every kid INTENTIONALLY discipled
With this intentionality in mind, I want to explain why we occasionally have the kids in the service with their parents.

1.  It is good for children to see their parents worshiping God.
2.  It is good for children to see the church worshiping God.
3.  It reminds the children that the focus of the church is not children's entertainment.  It is about worshiping God.
4.  It reminds the parents that the focus of the church is not the parent's convenience.  It is about worshiping God.
5.  It prepares children to be part of the service when they get older.
6.  It allows children to be part of the service today.

This is why we have 1st through 5th graders in church with their parents this Sunday.
