Welcome! I am so excited to have a new format for sharing about children's ministry at RMPC and all the things I am discovering along the way. The only thing I have ever created online is a Facebook profile, so this is brand new territory. I hope this is a great resource for your family and makes you feel a little bit more connected to what is happening.
I am passionate about this job, but I haven't always felt that way. Honestly, ministry is hard! It has been a struggle to carve out a place in a position never formally held by anyone else. I work great within existing structures, but here I have had to create structure along the way and face challenges I never before thought I could handle. But God is so good! He walks with me through highs and lows and sustains me when I am ready to give up. Now it is hard for me to imagine ever leaving what I have here at RMPC.
All this to say, I am far from having all the answers and everything figured out. I created this blog as a way to make you a part of what is happening in children's ministry, and also to share what I am experiencing as a parent. I am a little terrified to be transparent about my parenting fails, but I find comfort in knowing I am not the only one to be stumbling in this role. We are in this together, and any wisdom I have is only as a result of learning the hard way, and reading a lot of good books.
Each month I will post a list of topics children in each age group will be covering in Junior church and Kids Club. This will include the Bible passage, theme, memory verse, and any other relevant information that can aid you in bringing what they learn on Sundays into your home. I will also be notifying you of upcoming events, reviewing and recommending parenting resources, sharing what is on my heart, and informing you of important changes happening in children's ministry.
Please join me in praying that God would work in the hearts of our little ones, that they will grow up not knowing a day apart from Him. AMEN!!
