  • Ministering to Media-Minded Kids..........Presenter: Shannon Baker..........No, you don't have to turn your Children's Ministry into a video arcade to get children's attention. But there are some ways you CAN use media effectively to help them learn and live out The Greatest Story Ever Told.

  • Creating a safe haven for children.............Presenter: Kim Cook.................Building on the theme, "Who am I?" we quickly come to the realization that children are uniquely made. Churches need to consider how to best protect and nurture their youngest members, considering their unique needs and vulnerabilities. Churches should be a safe haven for children and their families. A quick look at the media tells us that this is not always true. This workshop will give you many practical tips and reminders about church safety policies. We will talk about everything from preventing abuse to dealing with allergies. You will walk away with handouts, web resources, and discussion points to take back to your church with the goal of improving what you already have in place.
