As we glance back over the 2023-2024 year, we are so very thankful for the many people who serve so faithfully in Children’s Ministries in our churches and community events. Our ultimate mission is to see many children come to know Jesus, grow in their love for Him, and live to serve Him every day of their life. Upon reviewing this past year, we had the privilege of giving the joy of loving, guiding, and discipling young children. None of this would be possible without our churches dedicated teams. Thank you! We truly appreciate your faithfulness to serve. At times, we can see the impact of the Holy Spirit moving through our lives making a positive influence as we lead children each week in our churches, our yearly Vacation Bible Schools, and area community children’s events. It’s worth it all as you see a child’s life changed by a loving God. Children will take God’s love back to their family and many times, they come to know Christ through someone like you being willing to share the love of Jesus. In many cases, we will never see the impact of a family’s life until we get to heaven.
As we begin to serve in our 2024-2025 year, let us continue to serve in unity, sharing God’s extravagant love by partnering with our families and reaching outside of our four walls together to reach the lost and hurting individuals for Jesus. As brothers and sisters in Christ, we serve by being an example of Jesus. We will mentor our little people by modeling serving, devotion, giving, prayer, and showing God’s love. Our SRBA Children’s Ministries Committee is here to support through prayers and encouragement. If you have any questions, or would like to be on our children’s committee team, please call Amy at 573-470-9340.
