Let the Children Come to Me! Kids in Church!!

This hour long seminar explains some of the why we
  have the 1st - 3rd graders in the beginning of the service
  do Kids in Church Sundays a couple of times a quarter 
and 
  encourage parents to have their children sit with them in the service.

If you cannot listen to the whole hour, I want to encourage you to start at the 44 minute mark and listen to the end.

Why should children participate when the church gathers for worship?

  1. There is spiritual benefit for children who participate in the worship service.
  2. It involves children in the most central, most regular, most valuable and most corporate activity of the church.
  3. It provides children with an intergenerational experience and thus the opportunity to be influenced and benefit from the example of others especially their parents.
  4. It facilitates the discipleship of our children.
