KIDSMINISTRY
"Children are a heritage from the LORD, offspring a reward from him. Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are children born in one’s youth. Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them. They will not be put to shame when they contend with their opponents in court."
Psalms 127:3-5
When is Children's Sunday School?
Every Sunday at our Second Service (10:30am), we provide bible based classes for our children. We currently use Brite from AWANA as our curriculum. Ages 4-12 are welcome to join us over in the Children's Education Building (CE) behind the main building.
What a Typical Sunday School Class Looks Like...
When parents drop off their 4-12 year olds at Sunday School, first they'll need to be signed in and we make sure we know who will be picking them up after service. Students will have a small activity available to them while we wait for everyone to arrive. We'll get started with our bible lesson and practical activity and move to our bible verse of the day. When our lesson is complete, we'll have time for snack and free play time while parent's arrive to pick up their children.
Every lesson is posted on our Children Ministry Facebook Group so parent's have access to what their student's have learned this week. Our hope is that parents are able to not only familiarize themselves with the lessons but also have conversations with their children during the week. We are currently using the Brite Curriculum from AWANA.
Safety
Parent's can rest assured their children's safety and protection are crucial to us at Plateau Community Church. Every adult that works with minors have had a complete back ground check and have been trained in our safety policies and procedures. When a child is dropped off to our Sunday School Program for the first time, a registration form is filled out by the parent informing us of any food allergies and or any other accommodations that are needed as well.
Kids Ministry Director
Penny is a retired school teacher and has been serving as our Kid's Ministry Director for several years. She has been married to John since 1975 and has two children and 4 grandchildren. In addition to teaching, Penny prepares bookwork for the family business. Penny and John are taking advantage of the opportunity to travel while their health, energy and finances allow them to. Being a mom (grandma and teacher) is the BEST and hardest job there is in Penny's opinion. The responsibility feels daunting and prayer is the only way to make it through parenting and all work with the precious responsibility of kids. Penny's life verse is, "Rejoice in the Lord always, again I will say, REJOICE! Let all men know your reasonableness(gentleness). The Lord is at hand; do not be anxious for anything but in everything by prayer and supplication, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. " Philippians 4:6-8
