Inspired to Serve! (Youth & Family)

Youth & Family Ministry 

How does a person receive faith in the Lord Jesus? For many people, the family is a significant instrument by which God brings faith. Parents play a key role to share the faith as they pray for their child, have devotions for their child, witness to their child, encourage their child, bring their child to worship and Sunday School. Their own example of faith is a great teacher for their child. Here is what the Bible says about the importance of parents teaching their children:

You shall teach them [God's Word and commandments] to your children, talking of them when you are sitting in your house, and when you are walking by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise. (Deuteronomy 11:19)

One generation shall commend your works to another, and shall declare your mighty acts. (Psalm 145:4)

Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord. (Ephesians 6:4)

How do we help parents and families in their important job of passing the faith to their children? We do so through ministries such as Sunday School, Preschool, Youth Group, Vacation Bible School, Confirmation Class, Two and You, Youth Music Ministry. All of these ministries require support from parents and interested adults. If you feel inspired to serve, check out opportunities at the table in the narthex (entry way).

Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these." (Mark 19:14)
