So.. how do you make family a priority in your ministry? Start in small ways..meeting them where they are rather than where we think they should be... highlighting the phases of life for children and families.
Here's a simple suggestion: Whenever a family brings along their new baby for the first time to church, highlight that milestone. Introduce the family and the new little one to the entire church family, pray for them and highlight the importance of families in the lives and faith development of children. Personalise and present this certificate to the family and, if possible, include a Bible story book. We also attach a silk rose to the certificate and present the family with a family manual with growth milestones and suggestions for impacting this young life placed in their hands.
