The Eight Objectives of CCPL's
Community Kids Ministry

 

In order to be a success we must understand what it is we want to accomplish during the time each child is a part of our ministry. We have identified these eight objectives to guide us.

 

1. To fill children’s minds with the Word of God so they can grow to think the way God thinks (wisdom) and live the way God commanded (obedience).  One of our goals is that children be in the habit of going to God’s Word on their own every day.

2. To establish in children habits of godly living as a daily lifestyle.  These include daily Bible study, being an active part of our church, obedience to God and  prayer.

3. To create a Christian community of children, students and adults who enjoy life together as a family and are committed to each other and to Jesus Christ.

4. To help children build proper relationships to the authorities in their lives.  We support the parents of our kids, recognizing our commitment to their success.

5. To help children trust Christ as Savior, to submit to Him, and to live as Christians at home, at school, at play, or wherever they are.  We take children where they are spiritually and walk them as far as they will allow us.

6. To help children grow from being self-centered to becoming Christ-centered, focusing on others rather than on themselves. We want our kids to have servants’ hearts. Local and world missions are a part of this.

7. To build Christian homes by encouraging families and training them in their tasks.

8. To make each child’s experience safe, fun, and profitable in the process of becoming everything God has planned.

Every time, every class, every program.
