Please invite friends and family.......A community event P RAY E R KING’S KIDS Kings’s Kids children and teachers have been all learning about using our gifting’s for God. This term we are now going to practice putting these gifts into action. There are many wonderful and varied gifts among the children to which we can celebrate. Each week we will be looking at: What service am I created for? What’s my ministry? Our memory verse is: “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” Actual ministry roles in running a church service will be taught by the teachers according to their own gifting’s. Areas like worship leading and singing, service roles like welcoming, ushering, collecting, and sound and data, preaching, teaching and prayer will be directed. This will culminate this year with the children running the Christmas Pageant on December 21st. Adults will be drawn in to work alongside the kids. Praise God. Prayer Points 1. That each child will be able to be released and minister into their gifting in serving God in the local church. 2. That each child will be drawn closer to God as they honour Him with their gifting’s. 3. That we all do service for God with a Godly attitude and a willing SMILE :) 4. For the leaders health and energy. Purple Team– Francie, Mike and Ginny, Kayleigh and Zoe Green Team—Don, Akata, Lisa and Josh T. 5. For all the Christian children suffering from persecution in the world. God Cares.
