Virtually every society in the history of the world has understood the importance of passing down both practical and spiritual truths to its children. By design, children are curious and able to absorb large quanities of information in a short period of time. It could be said, that children are the perfect "learning machines," wether for positive or negative. It is also true, however, that by
age 13 most children have set their course
for life. In other words, the odds of children accepting Christ as their Savior become greatly reduced from this point on and for
the rest of their lives.
For this very reason, we, at 1st Assembly of God, consider Children's Ministries to be a crucial part of our church life and missions. The earlier we can expose children to God's word and help them to apply these truths, the more successful we will be in fulfilling Jesus' Great Commission to "make disciples of all nations."
Yet, in fulfilling our mission to raise-up kids for Christ, we believe in having fun! In Kids Church we play games, do crafts, interact with puppets, go skating, raise money for missionaries, and lots more, all while teaching and reinforcing Biblical truths.
