CHILDREN’S MINISTRY MASTERCLASS & YOUTHWORKS COLLEGE THINK TANK | 11 MAY

We’re excited to be hosting Ed Drew from Faith In Kids UK for two events on Thursday 11th May.

• Children's Ministry Masterclass – 2:00 pm – 4:30 pm

Topic: Raising Confident Kids in a Confusing World

“Who am I? Who is the real me? How can I tell?”

It is not only teenagers and adults who are asking these questions, but the children in our families and church ministries as well. In this Masterclass workshop, Ed Drew will take us through the importance of instilling in children their primary identity in Christ, and how that impacts the tricky questions that children are facing in our culture around friendship, sex and gender.

Who should attend? This workshop event is specifically designed for vocational Children’s Ministers and other ministry staff who want to help children and their families grow in their identity in Christ and how that expresses itself in the world.

• Networking opportunity - 4:30-5:30pm - Light refreshments served

• Youthworks College Theology Think Tank – 5:30 pm – 7:30 pm DINNER INCLUDED

Topic: Church and Family - Partners in Children’s Faith Formation

The effective passing down of faith to the next generation occurs in partnership between a household that intentionally engages in faith-formative practices with young people, and a community of believers who engage in reciprocal relationships between the generations. In this seminar, Ed Drew will walk through key insights from recent research into faith transmission and how church leaders can be facilitating effective discipleship of young people in the church and the home.

Who should attend? This lecture style event is for Children’s and Youth Ministers and other ministry staff to help us think through how the partnership between households and local churches can best work together to grow the faith of young people.
