National Children's Ministries dedicates itself to working with and developing leaders and teachers who are currently serving in a full-time, part-time, or volunteer capacity in their local church. Our desire is to engender and encourage genuine enthusiasm and lasting commitment within established and developing Children's Ministries programs, while seeking to enhance and cultivate the leadership gifts of those individuals who are daring to change the world by serving children.


NATIONAL CHILDREN’S DAY

On October 10, 1997, President Clinton announced a Presidential Proclamation declaring October 12 to be "National Children's Day". In the declaration, he stated with the birth of every child, the world becomes new again. Within each new infant lies enormous potential -- potential for loving, for learning, and for making life better for others. But this potential must be nurtured. Just as seeds need fertile soil, warm sunshine, and gentle rain to grow, so do our children need a caring environment, the security of knowing they are loved, and the encouragement and opportunity to make the most of their God-given talents. There is no more urgent task before us, as a people and as a Nation, than creating such an environment for America's children.

Rock Solid Kids By ~ Giving Children a Biblical Foundation for Life
Author: Larry Fowler

Sometimes children are viewed in terms of their future value. But to Jesus, children were precious in the here and now, and He gave them His full attention and love. In Rock-Solid Kids, Larry Fowler explains that we must view children in the same way and make certain that the way in which we teach children is based on what ought to be the most important influence — the Word of God. Order from Amazon or your local book store.
