Children's Ministry Training

Earlier today, Agape held a Children's Ministry Training class to teach the House Parents, Teachers, and other staff members some practical ways to plan and conduct Biblical instruction for kids.  We also had a few members of Calvary Chapel's congregation join us as they begin developing the children's ministry program at the church.  All together we had around 30 people join us for the training; a great morning!  Here are a few photos of the day:

I taught a class on Planning & Preparing for Children's Ministry.

Eric taught on Child Evangelism using an Evangelism Explosion (EE) curriculum.

Steve always gives the best classes; he's kind of like a prop comic . . . he taught on using different visuals and object lessons with the kids.

Morris and Ann playing out a skit.

Among other topics, Diane taught on the importance of engaging the kids' 5 senses when teaching.

Lisa closed out the morning with a class on principles to follow in teaching children.

Not necessarily relevant to the morning's class, but I had to include little Peggy, Pastor, the pastor at Calvary's youngest daughter.
