VIP TIME (Vision/Information/Prayer)

We believe every ministry of Emmanuel Baptist Church is God's ministry.

Because of this truth, we want to submit each of these ministries to the Lord in prayer.
And this is much more than just asking God to bless whatever we planned.
It is seeking Him and wanting His best.

Do you believe in the power of prayer?
Do you think it is important to know what is going on in the ministry you are involved in?
Is it important to know what we are trying to accomplish in our children's ministry?
If you answered yes to one or all of these questions plan to come to one of our prayer times this Sunday morning!

We are going to be even more committed to this in our EKIDZ ministry through monthly Vision/Information/Prayer Times.

These prayer times are scheduled for March 1st, April 12th and May 3rd @ 8:45, 10:15 or noon.

These meetings are mandatory for those serving during that month.
These meetings will be short, only FIVE minutes long.
These meetings are for everyone.  They are for teachers, helpers, nursery workers and teens serving.
Please be on time.  Because these meeting are only FIVE minutes long, you can't afford to be late.

Soul Care and Kids This Week!!

This is a post I shared with the Soul Care leaders earlier this week.

This Sunday's EKIDZ lesson was the Triumphal Entry so in Soul Care 
we are going to be celebrating the KING OF KINGS!!!

We worship the one who is King of Everything.
That is why we can persevere.

I am going to show some praise posters like the ones below.
With the 1st through 3rd graders this week, we made praise posters.
These were ideas we showed the kids.

The Image of a Gate

The Image of a Lighthouse

We are then going to sing "My Lighthouse"
which we sang this past Sunday in class.


For weekly reviews of the EKIDZ lessons and kid ideas during your Soul Care group
