Nurturing Faith, Building Futures
Welcome to Shepherd’s Heart Children’s Ministry, where we inspire young hearts to grow in faith and love.
Our Vision and Commitment
At Shepherd’s Heart, our Children’s Ministry is dedicated to creating a secure and nurturing environment where children can explore and deepen their relationship with Jesus.
We believe in fostering a supportive community for our youngest members, encouraging them to grow spiritually and socially within a faith-filled setting.
Biblical Foundations
Scriptural Motivation: “We are inspired by Matthew 19:14, where Jesus emphasizes the importance of children within the Kingdom of Heaven. Our ministry is built on the principle of welcoming children and nurturing their faith, as Jesus did.”
Ethical Guidance: “Guided by Ephesians 4:29, our interactions within the ministry are wholesome and uplifting, ensuring that every word and action contributes positively to the community.”
