SERVE WITH GRACESQUAD

...allow the children to come to Me — do not forbid or prevent or hinder them — for to such belongs the kingdom of God.

Mark 10:14b

Scripture reveals the love Jesus has for children and His desire for little ones to have free access to Him. Children's ministry is an important, impactful, and honorable calling that helps lay the foundation for those in our youngest generations to one day grow into strong men and women of faith. Volunteers serving with GraceSquad help ensure our children are not only given the opportunity to come to the Lord, but to also develop a strong, personal, and lifelong relationship with Him.
