 Kids ministry made an impact in my life because I saw how important having a foundation was. It got me involved in the church at a young age. So as I grew older, I kept those ties and those relationships. I started surveying kids ministry when I was 10 years old. I signed up for team. The moment I was 10, and I remember going through it and memorizing the verses that we had to memorize and then being able to serve in the classroom with the little kids. And it was always something that I look forward to. By letting your children into kids ministry here, you're allowing them to be shown God's love at a very young age. You're allowing them to see faces that they'll probably be seeing up until high school. It's just been a really great experience being able to go from someone who just came to someone who serves and is able to make an impact to help to go on mission trips to be able to reach out and show God's love. And that is the most important thing that has come out of just me being able to serve here. I think growing up in church has a huge impact on every single thing that I do. Even small decisions that I make through the day are being based off of the faith that was built here at this church. And so for me to leave my home for a year and go out on the missions field really does stem all the way back from Sunday school and all the principles and lessons that I learned about who Jesus was and how he came down from heaven to serve us. They need to be fed just as much as you need to be fed. And the children's ministry is set up in a great way where it meets the kids at their age level. So there's the crafts for the different ages. There's teachings that are geared towards their different ages so that when you're in with Pastor David, you as a parent might be getting a great message but it's way over your kid's head. So it's really important to give them that solid foundation as a child so that when they are old enough and mature enough to come and sit with you and listen to Pastor David they're understanding Pastor David's references to Noah and Daniel and all those biblical characters that they're introduced to. This is just bigger than us. It goes far beyond what we understand and God just works everything together to where the kids ministry really did help me grow as a Christian.
