YOUR Arkansas Conference Children's Council is offering a contest to make it easier for those far away to come to the Beyond conference! If your church is more than an hour and a half drive away from Little Rock and you gather yourself with at least 3 others from your area to register by December 15, we will purchase you a $150 hotel gift card to share a room together for the Friday night of the Beyond 2019 conference! Once you have registered for Beyond with your three friends, email Melinda. One gift card issued per the four outlying districts, so don't delay be the first to contact Melinda from your district.

Christmas Children's Sermon

By the time it is Christmas Eve most Children's Ministers have had Children's Christmas programs, Jesus' Birthday party celebrations, visit with Santa events, and family caroling night! Not to mention whatever giving service project your Children's Ministry team headed up for the church! So when your pastor reminds you that you need to do the Children's sermon for Christmas Eve worship, it's understandable that your brain feels like crushed candy canes when you try to think of a special sermon!

*Note when ordering there are used ones on Amazon as well, but make sure you are getting the big book not, the small board book.

This is a lovely book that is a quick read for a children's sermon. The continued message in the book is that "there is always room for a little one!" Once you read it to your children conclude by saying you too are a little one and Jesus' love is always welcoming you!
