Children's Ministry

MISSION

City of Faith Church's vision is to create a fun and loving community for children where they are irresistibly drawn to Christ and where the children ministry's leadership invests in our next generation by developing their faith, God-given spiritual gifts and natural talents.

 

 

VISION

Our vision for the children's ministry at City of Faith is to empower, equip, and activate children to advance the Kingdom of God. It's our heart that they know Him, encounter Him, and adore Him. Children will learn to know God through the bible, they will encounter Him through His presence, and adore Him through a life surrendered.

We impart the Word of God to the children by teaching with a systematic approach where they are able to hear it, see it, say it, and do it. We create an environment where the Holy Spirit is welcome and the children are positioned to encounter God's manifest presence. Worship, soaking, dancing, prophetic art, prayer, and prophecy are just some of the many ways that His presence is manifest revealing the Father's love for them. Through knowing and experiencing God, the fruit of a child's life is adoration and a life surrendered.
