OUR GOALS


To provide resources for pastors, youth leaders, children’s leaders, young adult leaders, volunteer workers, or anyone interested in ministering to youth or children. Such resources can be found here or by calling our department.

To create other opportunities for resourcing and connecting come through our various ministries provided throughout the year for your local church’s youth and children’s ministry. ​Ministry events such as PowerZONE, Winterfest, Kid’s SONfest, Youth Camps, Youth & Children’s Leaders Training Seminars, Girls Clubs, Teen Talent, and Junior Talent are designed to positively impact you and your church.

We believe that God has called us to invest in the next generation of youth and to teach them the doctrines and disciplines of the Christian faith. To enable them to fulfill their God-given purpose and to ignite them with a passion. To love the lost, equip them for life, relationships, service and leadership."

    Children first see the picture of God’s love through the eyes of those they trust and respect. Girls Ministries can help fit the pieces together in life’s puzzle and plant seeds that will potentially lead a child to Christ. We must set godly examples with dedication, dependability, and a determination to bear the image of Christ. With God’s anointing, each mentor can be the key to the fuel that feeds the flame of salvation in a child’s life. You cannot kindle a flame within another’s heart until it burns within your own. Feed the flame and keep the fire burning BRIGHT.

  • ✓ Aim to lead all my students who are unsaved to accept Christ as their personal Savior and to make the spiritual life of my students my chief concern, in order to lead them into a fuller life of spiritual growth.
  • ✓Carefully prepare my lesson and make each session a matter of prayerful concern, presenting the doctrines of my church with conviction and honesty. At the same time, I will be considerate of the convictions of others.
  • ✓Strive to live up to my responsibility in being prompt to class (15 minutes before class begins), and to contact absentees before the following club meeting time.
  • ✓Attend all the services I can at my church and encourage my students to do likewise.

  • Children learn more from you than you realize...
    They learn how NOT to be reliable if you are often absent.
    They learn how NOT to be punctual if you are often late.
    They learn how NOT to care if you do not care enough to be prepared.
    They learn how NOT to be forthright when they hear you gossiping.
    Judge each day NOT by the harvest you reap but by the seeds you plant!
    “Train up a child in the way he (she) should go, and when he (she) is old
    he (she) will not depart from it.” Proverbs 22:6
    “One generation shall praise Your works to another, and shall declare Your mighty acts” Psalm 145:4
