Vision: Shaping and building the church of tomorrow...

    Welcome to one of the most challenging and rewarding arm of Christian Life Centre where teachers can utilise and develop the unique gifts deposited in them to sow valuable seeds into the lives of many children and co-workers.

    Children's Church is a place where we teach the children uncompromising Word of God, how to pray, promote fun and enjoyment in the house of God, inspire praise & worship, stimulate play activities, encourage creativity, develop and strengthen social skills in the 0-12 year age range.

    We have classes Sundays except every last Sunday of the month when the children minister to the church in a creative manner.

    The classes are divided into three age groups: Creche, 0-4 years Beginners 5-9 years and Pre-teens 10-12 years.

    Children's Day takes place every last Sunday in May. This is another moment where the children minister to the congregation in words and action.

Summary

The Children's Church at Christian Life Centre cultivates a vibrant space where teachers impart unwavering faith and joy to kids aged 0-12. Through dynamic classes on Sundays, except the last Sunday dedicated to the children's creative ministry, we foster spiritual growth, play, and social development. Our age-specific groups and annual Children's Day celebration in May further empower children to actively minister and engage within the congregation.
