From Sister Candice:
💛 So Thankful for Our Kingdom Kids Team! 💛
I just want to take a moment to say a HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who has stepped up and supported me and our Kingdom Kids ministry over the past few weeks!
Whether you have volunteered to fill in a classroom when we needed an extra hand, faithfully served with our kids, helped check children in and out each service, jumped in when you saw something that needed to be done, or simply asked, “How can I help?” — please know how incredibly appreciated you are. ❤️
I truly believe the Lord is doing something special in our children, and what an incredible privilege He has given us to be a part of it! Children’s ministry is so much more than filling a classroom or keeping kids occupied while adults are in service. We are pouring the truth of God’s Word into the next generation. We are helping children learn who Jesus is, discover how much He loves them, experience His presence, and build a foundation of faith that we pray they will carry with them for the rest of their lives.
That makes EVERY person who serves incredibly important.
Every lesson you teach, every prayer you pray with a child, every encouraging word you speak, every hug, every smile, and every time you simply show up and let a child know that they are loved and valued matters. You may never fully know this side of Heaven the impact the Lord can make through your willingness to serve.
And I am SO EXCITED about what the Lord has in store for our Boys Club and Girls Club on Wednesday nights! 🎉 We have some wonderful people stepping up to serve, lead, mentor, and pour into our boys and girls, and I cannot wait to see what God does through these ministries.
To those who have said YES to serving on Wednesday nights — THANK YOU! ❤️ You aren’t simply volunteering for another church program. You are investing in children. You are helping disciple the next generation. You are becoming another godly voice in their lives reminding them who they are, who God created them to be, and how they can live for Him.
What an incredible responsibility — and what an incredible privilege!
Kingdom Kids takes a TEAM, and lately I have been reminded again and again how blessed I am to have people who are willing to step up, serve, love, encourage, and invest in our kids.
Thank you for loving our children.
Thank you for supporting Kingdom Kids.
Thank you for answering the call to serve.
Thank you for helping carry the load.
And most importantly, thank you for allowing the Lord to use YOU to help point the next generation toward JESUS. 🙌❤️
I appreciate each and every one of you more than you know, and I am so excited to see what the Lord is going to do in Kingdom Kids! The best is yet to come! 💛
“We will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the Lord, His power, and the wonders He has done.” — Psalm 78:4 🙌
🌟 And as thankful as I am for everyone who has already said YES, I’m continuing to pray that the Lord will stir even more hearts to step up to the plate and serve alongside us. 🙏❤️ Please join us in prayer for this.
There is always room for another willing heart, another set of helping hands, another encouraging voice, and another person who is willing to say, “Lord, use me.”
Jesus made it so clear how precious children are to Him. When we invest in them, love them, teach them His Word, pray over them, and help them discover who they are in Christ, we are investing in something with eternal significance.
So I’m praying that God continues to raise up men and women who see children the way Jesus sees them — precious, valuable, worth our time, and worth investing in. May He continue building a team of people who understand that children’s ministry isn’t simply childcare or filling a spot on a schedule. It is ministry. It is discipleship. It is Kingdom work. ❤️
There are children walking through our doors every week who need people willing to pour Jesus into their lives. May we always be a church willing to answer that call.
“Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.” — Matthew 19:14 ❤️
The next generation is worth it. Eternity is worth it. Jesus is worth it. 🙌
