Issue Group 18: Evangelization of Children

·

The evangelization and discipleship of children as a primary responsibility of and privilege for the church.

The expected outcomes of the work done on this issue were:

  1. Consider ways in which we challenge the church to be more involved in children’s evangelism and provide examples of best practice.
  2. Suggest practical ways children in our secular societies can hear about Jesus.
  3. Indicate ways in which the church could think creatively about keeping children active in its fellowship and to become an ongoing part of the church community.
