Jesus Loves the Little Children

Through our investigation we learned that the Chilean church is not evangelizing children. The general population is growing at rate of more than double that of the church. Many do not understand the need to evangelize children, thinking that they are innocent of sin. But the Bible says that we are born in sin, having inherited our sin nature from Adam & Eve. So we began a ministry to train children's workers, not only to entertain children in the Sunday Schools, if the church even has one, but to give them the opportunity to accept Jesus as their personal savior.

Recently, one of the churches organized a children's party. Each child in the church had been praying for 3 friends. They invited them to the party. There were 80 kids, mostly non-Christian. They sang songs that Bonnie taught and watched a Max Lucado kids' movie. Jan worked with Karla (in pink below), a youth from a different church to present the Gospel in the form of a drama. When they gave the invitation, 30 children prayed to receive Jesus!
