Evangelization for children during quarantine
«Jesus said: Let the little children come to Me, and do not hinder them, for the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to such as these.» (Matt. 19:14).
Quarantine is not a hindrance to evangelization. Ministers of the «Christ is the answer» church, leaders of home groups and Sunday school teachers organized children’s holidays at home during the quarantine restrictions.
The families had a spiritual and entertainment program: games, contests, and Bible quizzes. More than a hundred children in the city of Rivne, the villages of Horodyshche and Velykyi Zhytyn received gifts from Jesus.
«We thank God that today we organized a holiday at home. The Lord blessed us and gave us wonderful gifts, and we were able to bring the holiday to the children. After all, the guys do not need much to make them genuinely happy, and today our hearts rejoice with them. We also communicated with the parents, talked with them about life topics, and shared our experience. We are grateful to the Lord for everything, we give glory to Him!» – Olexandr Prokopovych, Minister of the «Christ is the answer» church.
Ministers of the Church believe that you should use any time and different opportunities to preach the Gospel. At the festival, children and adults heard about God, the descent of the Holy Spirit, forgiveness of sins and repentance, and eternal life.
«It is written in the Bible: «Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.» That’s why we hold such fun holidays for children. We play, listen to stories from the Bible, get acquainted. This is very interesting for children. If a child is surrounded by the christians, listens to christian music, reads the Bible, then in the future he will be familiar with it. That is why we hold such events to save their souls, so that they will repent when they grow up.» – Diana Khristyuk, Sunday school teacher of the «Christ is the answer» church.
The Ministers plan to hold as many such events as possible and, despite the quarantine, to do good deeds and be a light to this world.
Give
All areas of service of the community are carried out through voluntary donations of caring people. The most important thing is not the size of the donation, but the attitude and condition of the heart. God sees our needs and seeks to deprive us of our worries. He also wants to see the love and sacrifice of our grateful hearts. «Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver!» (2 Cor. 9:7).
