MINISTRY GROUPS
Puppets – in this elective the children will be given the chance to learn how to use puppets, write a script and then learn how to present what they have learnt in a show.
Dance – children will learn all different dance moves and will learn how to be creative in worshipping God through dance.
Drama – The children will have fun by participating in warm up activities such as theatre sports helping the children express themselves in creative ways. They will also learn the basics of drama as well as developing skills of how to put the Christian message in drama presentations.
Agents of Truth - Kids will learn one show [as a dancer] so they can participate in an Agents of Truth visit to their corps in the future. They will also learn about other ways they can be part of the Agents of Truth team plus being part of the mission.
Video – will teach the children basic video skills and will also focus on making and presenting short films based around a biblical message.
Mission Evangelism – will be a really fun time of face painting and ballooning. This will help children to be comfortable connecting with people in fun ways giving them the opportunity to show Gods love through these creative avenues.
Mission Social - The army has 3 main steps to mission and they are saving souls, growing saints and serving suffering humanity. This elective will give the kids an opportunity to understand what it means to serve suffering humanity. They will be taught how to identify social needs of those around them as well as practical ways to serve these people and to make a difference in the world.
Kids Worship – this will be an opportunity for the children to learn about being involved in a worship team and will give them an opportunity that they may not get at the church.
Guitar & Keyboard Skills – This will be an opportunity for children to learn either basic or advanced skills depending on their level of ability.
Prayer 101 – One of the most important things we can do is teach our kids how to pray. This Elective will be an opportunity for children to learn things like what is prayer?, why pray?, prayer tools and more.
