主耶稣爱每一个小孩子,他说:“让小孩子到我这里来,不要阻止他们,因为在天国的正是这样的人。(马太福音19:14)”作为跟随耶稣的一群人,我们欢迎每一个来到我们当中的孩子和他们的家人。每个主日,我们专门为孩子们安排有儿童崇拜,包括集体的音乐敬拜和按年龄组织的小组学习、手工等活动,培养孩子们对主耶稣、对神的认识,帮助他们体会神的爱和恩典,学习与神、与人建立真实、和谐和友爱的关系。
儿童主日崇拜的大概形式是和孩子们一起先用音乐敬拜神,然后按年龄分组根据既定教材学习神的话,并结合相关主题组织好玩的的手工游戏,最后大家一起开心吃点心。为适应孩童们在澳洲的成长环境,我们用英文授课,用中文和家长沟通。
年龄组主要分为三个:
- 3-5岁 (认真小玩家)
- 6-8岁 (资深探险家)
- 9-12岁 (云端漫步车)
儿童崇拜时间为每周日10:00am-11:30am,在后堂可爱的小砖房里(piggy house)。
Jesus loves every child.
Jesus said, ‘Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.’ (Matthew 19:14)
As followers of Jesus Christ, we welcome every kid and their families to join us. We specially have children worship session every Sunday, including musical worship, group study and activities based on different ages. They will learn more about Jesus and God experiencing God’s love and grace together so we learn to build real, peaceful and friendly relationship with God and people.
