[ Kid Builders ]

Hi And Welcome To The First Kid Builders Conference.

"No man is an island entire of itself" the famous words of John Donne. These words have never been more true than now. In children's ministry you often feel like you are in an uphill battle for volunteers, budgets, concerned parents and of course the children you are responsible for. As we were discussing this one day over breakfast, the idea of a one day conference targeting only children's ministry workers was conceived and the concept of Kid Builders was born.

The conference is for Children's Pastors, Children's Ministry Workers, Sunday School Teachers and those who have a heart for evangelism to unreached kids in the community. The sessions provided will help to teach you new skills or improve upon existing skills. We have brought expert speakers in from all over Canada and the US to impart words of wisdom to encourage you in the very important work you do with children each week. It is our hope that you find the sessions valuable, encouraging and useful and with that in mind we have provided a broad range of topics and speakers for you to choose from. You will find workshops on puppets and puppetry, object lessons, power point tips, working on a budget, partnering with parents (Think Orange), Plan to Protect, kids leading kids, instilling hearts of worship in kids, creative community outreach and many more.

There will be a vendors area and lunch will be provided.

[ KARL BASTIAN ]On May 7 - 9, 2010 the launch of the first Kid Builders Conference will take place at New Covenant Christian Fellowship in Brantford, Ontario. Our special guest speaker is the founder of Kidology.org, an online mega-resource of children's ministry related material. He comes very well qualified to equip and encourage Children's Ministry Workers and his fun and easy going style will both entertain and challenge them along the way. For more information on Karl and the work he does, follow this link.

"Karl Bastian has a fantastic way of teaching kids. Come and learn and be inspired by his unique style."

We hope you'll find more than you're looking for here at this year's conference and we look forward to meeting you. God bless you as you serve Him in Children's Ministry wherever you are.
