Nurturing Children Through Worship & Prayer
What if a ministry was built among the Methodists of Michigan that inspired children in their Christian life the way Wow In The World inspires children in science? What if the following elements came together to spur a movement of children into deepening practices of worship and prayer, and that movement made children’s live and family’s lives richer and more capable of sharing God’s love with others?
This movement might have:
A flagship podcast and video channel featuring lovable characters exploring the bible and giving messages for faithful Christian living
Grassroots musical groups living into the Wesleyan tradition of worship music creation - giving kids great options to listen to on Spotify and other platforms.
Resources and downloads for teachers and parents to use to encourage their young people in spiritual growth and development.
A system for kids to “call in” their prayers and readings of scripture so they know that they are an active part of the church’s witness in the world.
Our camps may host hundreds of Confirmands each year for capstone events, helping welcome them into professing membership in our churches.
What if from our 100,000 members in Michigan there were 50,000 listeners, 20,000 followers, 10,000 parents and teachers, 4,000 families, and 2,000 Sunday School classes all engaged with this focused media effort to help the Methodists of Michigan welcome 800 new Confirmands into full membership in our churches each year?
