The Children’s Ministry of CSAFMI starts taking ground as the children actively participated in the Sunday School Service. It is not only the grown-up Christians who needs to be equipped and prepared for God’s work. The preparing and equipping should start from this young minds, bodies and hearts. We believe that implanting the seed of Christianity among these children will yield much growth and fruits in the near future. For some scholars says that the very foundation of each man’s life rest on his childhood.

Believing that from these children future shepherds and workers of CSAFMI will emerge, it seems proper that they be trained even at such a tender age. It is very important for children to be well founded with the Word of Truth so that they will certainly grow up living with this truth. As proverbs 22:6 says, “train up a child in the way he should go so that when he is old, he will not depart from it.”

The Sunday School Session includes bible story reading, games, memory verse and singing. These activities aim for developing the children not only to be spiritually mature but also molds them to be morally responsible, socially adaptable and emotionally stable, as well. This will augment to the needs for the holistic growth of an individual that is catered by their homes and schools. As a proof of the said growth and readiness the children of CSAFMI actively participated during the foundation day of the church last January 11,2008. They rendered an interpretative song number with a message of willingness to be used by God for His glory. They are also performing on a regular basis on the Sunday Services for further exposure and training.

We are looking forward for the best possible result of this endeavor. It may take some hard times and some more years to be visible because preparing vessels fit for the LORD are not that easy. Let us help our children in as they make themselves clean vessels worthy of use for God’s glory.
