Children
Children & Family Christian EducationIt is important for children to observe their parents, teachers, and other significant adults express their faith through worship, service, prayer, and relationships. Opportunities like that will help them grow in their faith. The faith life of children is nurtured as they are embraced in a family of faith and a vital fiath community.
"Effective faith formation engages children and their parents in programs that involve the whole family in learning together." Best Practices in Children's Faith Formation
