Rethink Children and Young People's Ministries
A thriving children's ministry is essential when working to build a strong congregation and increase membership. Here in the Nebraska United Methodist Conference, Pastor Jeri Soens of Hemingford UMC has dramatically increased membership at her church by focusing on children. Come to one of three Rethink Children's Ministry Workshops where she and Children and Young People's Curriculum Advisor Cheri Kneifel will share the successful children's programs that they have developed. Discover how something as simple as a hand puppet can be a catalyst for church growth. The workshops are sponsored by the Leadership Development Team of the Nebraska United Methodist Conference.
