'Pass it On', June 23: 12 -1pm. 'Music for Children's Ministry' with Jade Johnston Contact Juliet Briner to register [email protected]
Jade has been serving in children’s ministry for over 20 years, including four years in Brisbane and Canada, and sixteen years on staff at C3 Church Ballina. She graduated in 1997 from QUT with a Bachelor of Primary Teaching, majoring in Music, and has taught in both QLD and NSW across special needs and mainstream primary schools, as well as in a private music school for 29 years.
Jade loves music and believes it’s a fun, accessible way for everyone to participate, regardless of ability or skill level. She sees music as a gift from God: a powerful way to worship and enter His presence, both corporately and personally. She incorporates music in her ministry every chance she gets. June 23, Jade will share from her ministry experience and practice as well as pass on a few practical ideas with using music for early childhood to primary in ministry.

Join Juliet from AYCF and others involved in Children's and Youth ministry in an online community called 'Pass It On'. 'Pass It On' recognises the importance of children’s and youth ministry in shaping faith for the next generation. This community exists to support and encourage those who serve in this space, helping them feel resourced, connected, and sustained in their calling. There is no pressure to be an expert or to have the right words, simply an invitation to journey together, be supported, and pass on the Gospel of Jesus!
Pass it on will go for 1 hour with time to share, pray and engage in a practical teaching and question session.
