Children's Ministry - The J.O.Y. Zone - "Equipping Parents & Building Foundations
Director of Children's Ministry: Grace Yoon
Mission: To teach children the foundational Biblical truths and values
Vision: A ministry overflowing with children who know the person of Christ
Strategy:
1. Support and encourage parents to confidently raise their children up as devoted worshippers of God and disciples of Jesus Christ;
2. Equip parents to teach their children at home and in church by sharing resources;
3. Build foundations of Christian faith for children at all ages through a team work between parents and teachers.
Explanation:
CLC believes that children of this age group have the greatest ability to appreciate, learn and retain what they encounter. CLC will focus on delivering the truths and redemptive story of the Scripture to children and help them retain what they learn through catechism and story-telling. CLC believes that it is most important to teach them about the person of Christ in depth so they will learn to develop a deep sense of the presence of Christ their
lives. It is also important for parents and teachers to exhibit Christ-life in them consistent with their teaching.
