Children’s Curriculum

Supporting Scripture:

"Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not; for of such is the kingdom of God.  Luke 18:16"

Purpose:

This ministry exists to provide Bible-based, age-appropriate classes for children from birth to age twelve during our Bible class times on Sunday mornings and Wednesday evenings. We seek to provide all students with a solid scriptural base in the key concepts of our faith: the love of God, the nature of Christ, grace, baptism, the church, worship, etc. This deacon works closely with our other ministries for children: Children’s Activities and Kids for Christ.

Responsibilities:

  • Plan the Bible school curriculum for this entire age group, choosing material that is Bible-based and doctrinally sound. Periodically review the value of the material being taught, with the elders’ input.
  • Coordinate the classes each quarter.
  • Maintain a list of the names and ages of students in order to facilitate the division of classes.
  • Maintain a list of potential teachers.
  • Determine how many classes and teachers are needed, based on the number of students at each age level.
  • In September of each year, solicit teachers for the following four quarters.
  • One month before the beginning of the quarter, provide the incoming teachers with their material.
  • Assign classes to specific rooms.
  • Educate and equip our teaching staff.
  • Oversee the teachers’ supply room and the supply closets in each classroom. Donna Pacentrilli has agreed to purchase miscellaneous supplies and keep them organized. Lori Hernandez maintains the supply closet.
  • Maintain and supervise a children’s library of books to be kept in the supply closet.
  • Oversee the Hall Monitor position for Sundays and Wednesdays. These adults will help with the following needs:
    • Escort latecomers to their classes.
    • Oversee the children who leave their classroom.
    • Locate parents when they are needed.
    • Assist teachers when they have a special need.
    • Ascertain that teachers have arrived and that children have not been left unattended.

Note:

I cannot think of anything I would rather do than work with our children. God has commanded us to teach our children His word. Families with young children want and need a church with a good children’s Bible school program. A children’s ministry with the capable teachers that we have plays a big part in attracting new families.

 Our world is constantly trying to bombard our children with worldly morals and downplaying the importance of God. I have four daughters. I want them at this congregation in Pitman -- and I want them in Bible class. I, as a parent, thank you, teachers, for teaching my children. I know that all of our parents agree with me.
