But when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face, that your fasting may not be seen by others but by your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.

December 23, 2009 Ministry to Children at Bethlehem
Significant ministry to children begins in our youngest nurseries. Here a foundation of prayer begins for your child, as the godly men and women working in the nurseries are encouraged to "pray without ceasing" for the Lord's work in the hearts of these little ones while they are in our care.
As your child's language skilles develop and they move up into our middle nurseries, our prayers for them continue as we also begin introducing biblical truths to them through frequent use and illustration.
This pattern of prayer and instruction continues to develop in our oldest nurseries, by building a biblical vocabulary and helping your child see a great God through Bible stories they can understand!
