Children's ministry
“Whoever receives this little child in My name receives Me.” - Luke 9:48
We can see children playing on the streets or in sit outs or in the school campus, if we go to villages around 4 pm. If we approach them and ask can I tell you a story they will say yes and come with us. Telling them gospel through story is children's ministry. Sometimes their parents will come to see what is being taught to the children. By seeing us teaching them songs, stories, verses and good behaviour the will voluntarily send their children.
We can read in the Bible that, children are asking for bread but there is nobody to give. Which means children of gentiles also need Jesus. The lessons they learn in their childhood will be helpful for them to walk according to it when they grow up. If the love of Jesus is not sown to them, there is a higher chance for them to stray from the right path. The moto of Village ministry is the verse "Feed My lambs". Our action are towards the children in villages to know the love of God. We didn't come after a training or learning about this. We say stories about the good things Jesus did to us. We introduce Jesus by saying related verse to the story.
My dear! children today are leaders tomorrow, if we didn't share the gospel to them so think what will be their situation if we didn't share the gospel to them. May if they know about the love of God, they will become a disciple of Jesus. He will be able to change lakhs of people as children of Jesus. Its been 2000 years since Christianity has been introduced to India but only 3 percent of the people know Jesus. So we must act for it. Will you come forward to join us to meet the children in villages as a part time or full time? Will you make the future generation prosperous? Our country is in your hands start today.
To remember: Remember, if you correct a mistake in their childhood, that child will become a great personality in the future.
