Sunday school teacher in kindergarten/1st grade ministry
Serving in this ministry will be something I never forget! I spent three years working with the staff and children as a "shepherd." On an average Sunday we had around 100 kids at our service. We would spend the first 20mins in play time, during this time I would interact with the kids and get to know them through the means of legos or hopscotch. Next, we would have worship and a short sermon, as the speaker was on stage I would be on the floor with them maintaining quietness and making sure they listening. We would then enter what we called "table time." Everyone broke up in to small groups and I was in charge of leading 8-12 kids. This 40 minute period was filled with crafts and prayer requests. It was so amazing to have conversations about God with these children. The way in which they view the world is so pure and consistently reminded me of what it is to be a Christ follower. |
