Kidfest 2011 Bigger and Better Than Ever Before!
Teaching kids to know Jesus and tell others about Him is the focus of all that is done in the children’s ministry of Church of God Youth and Discipleship!
The International Department of Youth and Christian Education understands the need to target those between the age of 4 and 14 and is doing everything possible to reach those within the 4/14 window. Ministry to children has been a priority in the department for many years! The FOCUS Conference is in its 17th year! Kidmission.org is an attempt to help children’s ministry leaders focus on the Great Commission and discipleship. The annual Kidfest events is an even greater example of the intent to reach and teach children. Kidfest 2010 saw great spiritual experiences in the lives of kids. Hundreds were saved, sanctified and baptized with the Holy Spirit!
Kidfest 2011 will be bigger and better than ever before in the history of the event! Following the Great Commission theme for the second year, discipleship will be the focus. With the theme, Great Commission Kids Follow Jesus, the focus in each of the five venues will be on the Great Commission mandate of discipleship. The guest speaker line-up includes a variety of people who love ministry to kids. They include Yancy, The Lads, Marcus Abernethy and Kidz Dominion Ministry, Compel Puppet/Drama Ministry, Burnin’ Bush, Tommy Toombs, Steve Patrick and Kids Power Company, and Chris Ryan. Smoky Mountain Kidfest will once again be convening the Gatlinburg Convention Center! Carolina Kidfest is moving to a new location, the Charlotte Rennaissance Suites Hotel, where space will double both for the sessions and the hotel rooms! New this year at the Smoky Mountain Kidfest will be special sessions on Saturday morning for Girls Ministries with Yancy and Boys Ministries with Burnin’ Bush!
