For so many parents who have a “special needs child,” church is not an option. The children’s ministry team is totally under equipped and untrained on how to take care of these children and especially on finding ways to share the gospel with them. Most families leave their special needs child at home with a caregiver on Sunday because they don’t have peace of mind leaving their child in the hands of untrained staff. Surely these children need the gospel just as much as everyone else.

Pastor Larry and Penny Sauter have been ministering to special needs children for over 30 years. Their knowledge and experience alone will equip you to better understand the needs that are necessary to make your church friendly for these children.

Don’t miss out on this seminar. If you ask us, this is one of the most important seminars a children’s ministry team can attend. I am not sure when we will be able to run this seminar again, so don’t miss this one.

101 Foundations is the Basic Workshop for anyone starting in Children’s Ministry which is the Essential Elements for Sunday Success. Topics covered is:

  1. Understanding children: For every volunteer who works in children’s church, if you understand why, it is so vital to minister to children, it will empower and encourage you to apply yourselves with passion.
  2. Praise and Worship: This is the most vital area for your children’s church. Taking children into the presence of God is the only thing that will change their lives for ever! Essential for every children’s minister.
  3. Storytelling: The Bible comes alive when a story is told with skill and passion. All it takes is to think out of the box and tap into your God given creativity.
  4. Scripture Memorization: Knowing how to make scripture memorization a feature on Sunday morning takes skill and practice. Equip children with a powerful weapon and fill their heart with the word of God.
  5. Object Lessons: If you can keep a child’s attention, then it is easy to minister to them. Learning to present an object lesson skillfully will equip you to powerfully minister God’s word to young hearts and minds.
