VERSE PURSE OPENS IN SEPTEMBER
PURPOSE OF OUR MINISTRY
Christian education of all children, ages birth to 5th grade: thru Sunday School, Sunday morning missions and Children’s worship, Wednesday night programming, various Sunday evening events and Vacation Bible School. The Children’s Council asks the questions:
• How are we teaching scripture, theology, history, and doctrine?
• Are the children growing in knowledge?
Are families being served and strengthened in their faith walk?
Goals
Teach life application of Bible text (not just stories).
Teach the Bible in a way the kids will remember and enjoy.
Get families involved in Bible education together.
Get more people involved in volunteering the children’s area.
Give the parents tools and support them in their efforts to raise Biblically literate and Godly children.

Serving Christ Together.
