Children's Resource:
"I am only a little child."

You will notice a series of scripts cumulatively called “Jesus All-Together Picnic.” This is the time in worship when you would invite the children in your midst to come forward and join your children’s ministry leader(s) or the pastor for a few minutes of discussion and imaginative play. We have developed scripts to help guide your introduction of each weekly character.
