Go PRO in Spiritual Growth  
Go PRO
Dawn Farris, Director of Children's Ministries at New Testament Christian Church, Keokuk, IA, gives us some great tips on how to help our kids grow spiritually. 

"To really grow, we have to let God work inside of us. I mean, we can try to do it on our own, and we can try with all our might, but in reality, it must be God who moves and works in us to bring about change.

To help kids learn to rely on Jesus to help them grow spiritually rather than striving to "be good" on their own, teach them to go "pro" by using these three simple concepts based on the acronym PRO."  

  

Don't Get the Gimmie! Gimmie!'s   
Gimmie Gimmie
Gimmie! Gimmie! Thanksgiving is a fast-paced, holiday trading game that illustrates thankfulness vs. selfishness. Ideal for just a few kids as well as large groups, the object is to collect a complete set of Thanksgiving cards, while avoiding the greedy Gimmie! Gimmie!

Hectic fun unfolds as players shout "Two! Two!" and other combinations of cards to trade, all while working to build a matched set in the time allotted. Adapted by Karl Bastian as a solution for understaffed volunteer situations around the holidays, it provides an interactive object lesson while requiring just a few leaders to run.

Happy 20th Birthday, Kidology! 
Happy Birthday Kidology

20 years ago this December, the Internet gave birth to a site dedicated to EQUIPPING and ENCOURAGING Those Who Minister to Children: Kidology.org was born! 

  

It's been an incredible 20 years, and while the Internet has exploded with new helps for those who minister to children, Kidology.org has remained the leader in content and services for those who minister to kids.

  

To celebrate, we are praying for 500 DONORS over the next 3 months who will give a $20 donation to celebrate 20 years and help us with some website enhancements for the next 20 years.

  

» Find out how you can become one of the 500! 

Yosemite Summit 2015 Registration is OPEN! 
Yosemite Summit What is Yosemite Summit?
Yosemite Summit is a 5-day personal sabbatical for male children's pastors, situated in the heart of one of the most spectacular National Parks in the United States. It's "The Unconference for Children's Pastors!"

This refreshing summit of renewal from May 17-21, 2015, is available to a limited number of men who will be staying at a luxurious lodge inside Yosemite, only 10 miles from breathtaking Yosemite Valley.

 

Get away from the office, the church, the phones, the Internet, and the busyness of life and ministry. Recuperate with some fellow ministers while hiking, worshiping, and enjoying genuinely refreshing fellowship surrounded by vistas that only God could create.

The Well Equipped Volunteer Children's Ministry Handbook 
Well Equipped Volunteer
The Well Equipped Volunteer Children's Ministry Handbook is a 400+ page manual for Children's Ministry leaders and volunteers to help them start and grow a thriving Children's Ministry.

Every week, countless volunteers show up at churches to tirelessly work in Children's Ministry. They work in Sunday School, children's church, midweek club programs, VBS, and any number of other programs and activities offered.

 

Many of these faithful volunteers are under-trained and under-equipped but they serve anyway because they know that they are building up the church of tomorrow.

 

In The Well Equipped Volunteer Children's Ministry Handbook, volunteers and kidmin leaders will find a comprehensive reference manual that they'll use almost every single day to help them start and grow their Children's Ministry.
