Building Children's Ministry: A Practical Guide

People know they are called to children's ministry when they get goose bumps and butterflies from something a kid says or an idea that they know will communicate the gospel to children. Building Children's Ministry provides the practical information to transform those feelings and that calling into a successful children's ministry that is integrated into the life of the congregation. The book is divided into topical chapters, including: Getting the support of the pastor and the congregation; Statements of purpose; Budgets and fundraising; Recruiting and keeping volunteers; Safety and security; Discipline and appropriate policies; Choosing and evaluating curriculum; Publicity.
