Why do we need to make the discipleship of our children a high priority NOW? Ages 5-13… The most open window in a person’s life to accept Jesus.

Why do we need to make the discipleship of our children a high priority NOW? Many SDA children leave the church in their twenties.

Many of our children are growing up WITHOUT : The assurance of Salvation Daily personal time with Jesus

Using their gifts for worship, ministry, and mission The joy of sharing Christ with others A Biblical foundation for their faith

God has dreams for His children!

What are God’s dreams for His children? Deuteronomy 6:4-7 Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the Lord is one. Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These commandments I give you today are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.
