This past Sunday was exciting! It was the culmination of a summer of prayer, dreaming, planning, networking, recruiting and team building – but we launched our ALL NEW kids church program for this fall called The Outpost. Launching a new theme is exciting! But it also is strategic. As a ministry, our leadership team established four aims for our children’s ministry:
-
Engage Children
-
Delight Parents
-
Excite Volunteers
-
Bring Visitors Back!
We are driven by the vision of Church becoming the highlight of a child’s week – because when kids encounter God, their lives are changed, and eternity is impacted!
How, then, do you create an experience that will engage kids, delight parents, excite volunteers and bring visitors back? You create something unique, fun, interactive, and meaningful.
