Adult Series

We are beginning a new series in our adult church in several weeks entitled Our Rotten Sex Life. There is already quite a buzz about this series in the area with step stake signs, a twenty foot banner on our building and, yesterday, an article on the front page of the local paper. The teaching team and service design team for our adult church have been working hard to put together this provocative three week series. We are looking forward to many new faces that will be coming for the first time to check us out. The same Sunday we are kicking off this new sermon series is also our annual Fall Festival. We are excited to have so many things happening at once that will welcome new people into our church.
What does this have to do with children's ministry? Everything! We have the opportunity during this three week series to capture the attention and create enthusiasm among the elementary crowd. Not only will we be welcoming new first time kids into our classrooms but we will be seeing kids who may have stopped coming to class and started attending adult worship. I don't see many parents allowing their kids to sit with them through the first sermon entitled 'The Best Sex You'll Ever Have'. These next several weeks we need to ramp up our programming from the minute they walk in all the way through until their parents pick them up. Games, crafts, music, tech, teaching and small groups all need to be taken to the next level.


Don't miss out on the opportunities that your adult church provides you to reach kids!
