t iMpAC 2:67 kidz ministry June 2015 creating enthusiastic opportunities for each child to meet Jesus and equipping them to minister for a lifetime Readiness Prep-a-ra-tion: n. 1: the action or process of making something ready for use or of getting ready for an occasion 2: READINESS The Children’s Ministry Events Team is in the preparation mode- in fact we have been for several months. The time is fast approaching when the auditorium will take on is yearly “make-over” for a few days as we host another camp for the kids: 2015 Camp Impact ~ Kingdom Contenders. It is our prayer that the kids will experience the closeness of God’s Presence which will stir within them the desire to grow in their relationship with Jesus. We also love to see the kids grow in their relationships with friends throughout our time together! Camp will be a time to have fun, pursue God and spend time in His presence. Camp is also about equipping- preparing our kids to do what Jesus did! There are two ways in particular that we would like to encourage you to walk with your children during this season of preparation for camp: 1. Evangelism- praying for and inviting friends to come and experience camp with your children. There are pencils, postcards and brochures your children can use to invite friends from school, sports teams, neighbors, etc. I encourage you to be intentional about praying with your children and helping them reach out and invite others to come. 2. Prayer- Prayer prepares our hearts and the hearts of those around us. Prayer also changes the spiritual atmosphere in our region. Over the years we have had powerful times of prayer with the children in preparation for camp. This year there will be early prayer times on the nights of camp as well as prayer coverage the weeks leading up to camp. *Be watching for a prayer calendar for your children to be praying for their friends, themselves and other aspects of camp for the weeks/days leading up to July 9th. We can do our part in making things ready for camp but ultimately it is only setting the stage for God to show up! Prayer is a vital part of the “readiness” process. Schedule: The format for Camp Impact this year is as follows: high energy kid’s service on Thursday evening (7-9) and Friday evening (7-9). Saturday will be an all day event (10-3:30): kids’ service, lunch and activities at the park! We are excited about our role of “setting the stage” for God to show up and work in the lives of these precious young ones. We also anticipate sowing many seeds of truth into the hearts and minds of all who are with us for Camp Impact!
