Children's Ministries
From The Directors:
Children are a blessing from the Lord. With these blessings also come responsibilities. As stewards of God's children, parents are responsible for helping children grow physically, intellectually, emotionally and spiritually. Churches have a responsibility toward children, too. In Children’s Church we provide an environment in which children are safe, are taught at an age-appropriate level, and are encouraged to develop a relationship with Jesus Christ.
We minister to the spiritual needs of our children through a children's ministry program here at Golden Gate Missionary Baptist Church. If we are to have a healthy future, it is essential that we have a viable children's ministry.
Children's ministry also helps church growth by making it easier for new people to attend services. Parents will be able to listen to sermons without distractions. They will be confident that their children are loved, and that they enjoy spending time at church with their new friends. In this way, children's ministry helps evangelize parents.
Children's ministry helps the church's biological growth, because it teaches children about their Savior. It gives them both facts and experiences that help them decide to let Jesus live in them.
Children, who are given opportunities to be tuned in to their emotions through children's worship, associating Christianity with joy and love, will learn to be spiritually responsive.
