Welcome parents, children, guests and inquiring minds alike to our new blog site. The Childrens Ministry at Praise Fellowship (Russell, Pa) has been growing and expanding. Especially in the area of spiritual understanding in regards to our relationship with Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior.
My hope is this blog will be both informative and encouraging to all who read and subscribe. Each week I will be informing parents and guests what their children have been learning in each service. That's right we, at Praise Fellowship have 2 services. A 9am and a 11am service. At each of these services the children remain upstairs with their family members until after praise and worship. Then the children are released downstairs where the real fun begins. :-D

During the Month of March the children have started learning about the Holy Spirit gifts found in
1 Corinithians 12:7_11. The Holy Spirit gifts: gift of wisdom, gift of knowledge, spirit of faith, gift of healing, wonders and miracles,prophecy, gift of discernment, gift of speaking in tongs,and interpretation of tongues. The children learned about the first one mentioned the gift of wisdom. Also about King Solomon asking for this gift of wisdom. The story is found in 1 Kings chapter 3.
The children are given a weekly challenge. |It can be a memory verse, a quiz to take or a task to complete that goes along with the lesson given. The challenge is to be completed before the child'snext Sunday he/she attends. For more information there are links at the bottom of the blog. Feel free to check them out.
Weekly challenge for March 18, 2012
Memorize Joel 2-28-29: " I will pour out my Spirit upon all people. Your sons and daughters will prophecy. Your old men will dream dreams. Your young menb will see visions. In those days, I will pout out my Spirit even on servants, men and women alike.
At The 11am Service
The Preschool class is learning about the amazing love of Jesus. This is done through song, activities, crafts, games or fun story time.
K-2 Grade class is learning about Moses during the month of March. More specifically about the signs and wonders given to the Pharoah of Egypt and the Egyptians. Each week the children will discuss the different signs and wonders from God to help aid the Israelites from being captives in Egypt.
The 3rd-5th Grade class is learning about the various battles fought in the Bible. This is done twice through the month of March. On the other weeks the children our learning about trust, forgiveness, and anger. Especially in the areas of how to trust and forgive and why it's necessary. Also what to do about when we do get angry.
The Nursery
The Nursery continues to grow in numbers. Thus it had become increasingly important to keep all our babies safe. Especially those who are just learning to walk or crawl. Thus a multicolored gated area has been purchased and is now in use. The Nursery is also very baby friendly and serves babies from 6 mos up to 3 yrs old. For the toddlers there are slides, tumble mat, and all kinds of toys to enhance the child's sense of adventure and imagination.
Conclusion: As you can see there's a lot going on in Children's Ministry. join me weekly to find out more about what our Children our learning. Don't forget what B-I-B-L-E stands for... If you don't know ask your children...
