6 Elements Your Ministry Space MUST Have!

#kidmin #childrensministry #sundayschool #childrenschurch Hey there, KidMin Friends! I hope everyone has had a wonderful week...and that you're all ready to bring your kiddos to Jesus on Sunday! :D I was thinking about what makes our "spaces" kid-friendly, exciting, and a place to which they want to return. Of course, there's lots and lots of things to help with this, but here I want to discuss 6 that I believe are very important. Now, you may have a different set of ideas

5 Fundraising Ideas for Your Ministry

#kidmin #sundayschool #childrenschurch #childrensministry #fundraising Hey there KidMin Friends! I hope you are all doing well, and getting to the end of your school year. Now, we can enjoy some summer fun. :D Summer brings all sorts of fun for KidMin, but sometimes there is a price tag along with it. Because of that, I thought I'd touch on a few somewhat "simple" ideas to raise money for your ministry needs. First of all, what are some summer events/programs that may need

The Devil's Ferris Wheel

#kidmin #childrensministry #sundayschool #childrenschurch In 2019, my mentor shared a personal, childhood story about a trip to the amusement park with her father. It was a moving story of how they had gotten stuck on a ferris wheel, and ended up having to climb down....how it ruined her view of the fun they were supposed to have that day...and how they ultimately had to "start over" and begin their day again. Last night, when I was considering what I would share in my blog

VBS On a Shoestring Budget

#kidmin #childrensministry #sundayschool #vbs #vacationbibleschool Woohooo!!! VBS 2021!! At this time of year, we should already be well into the planning process and working towards our summer Vacation Bible School. However, I think it's safe to say, that lots of us are still wondering how to approach this summer's programming because of all the changes with our world's current situation. Having said that, where do we go from here? I posted a while back that we move forwa

#kidmin #childrensministry #sundayschool #kidsprayer #altarworking It's the last week of February...I can't believe how fast time always tends to fly by!
