Welcome to Mobile Ministry for Families, a compilation of resources to help children and their families connect with God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, and the members and mission of Covenant Presbyterian Church. The building may be closed, but our spiritual growth continues... apart-but-together!

At-Home Worship Ideas for Children

Do your kiddos get the wiggles while watching virtual worship? That's great! Click here for a PDF of ideas to engage children in online worship more meaningfully.

​

Create a Home Worship Space

Have your children help create a worship space in your home. What would be included in that space? Some ideas are: Bibles, a cross, music, prayers, religious pictures or banners drawn by the children. What other items? Sit in the worship space anytime, but especially on Sunday morning during the Sunday School lesson and online Covenant worship service.

Nature Activities

Earth Day is set aside to celebrate God’s creations and to remember to take good care of the earth by recycling, reusing, and reducing items in your home. Below are some family activities to celebrate Earth Day and God’s creations:

       Psalm 24:1-2

       Psalm 65:9-13

       Psalm 96:11-12

 

Anti-Racism Resources for Covenant Families

Have you wondered how to talk with your children about race and racial inequities?  Have you wanted to better educate yourselves?  We hope that Christians are trying to better understand our role in the society, and our impact (either known or unknown) contributing to these inequities. 

 

One of the things we can do is educate ourselves and our families.  There are MANY resources available to assist with this process and it is important to start discussions with your children early, even while you educate yourselves.  The Children's Ministries Team pulled together a few resources that they thought might be of interest to others below.

Children and Communion

Communion is celebrated the first Sunday of every month. Covenant has an open Communion table and invites and welcomes all children to partake of the bread and grape juice.  Parents and guardians decide when their children are ready to celebrate Communion.  Click HERE for a copy of the Children & Communion at Covenant Presbyterian Church booklet which gives guidance for parents.

Exercising Faith

  • Jumping for Jesus: Grab a jump rope and memorize Bible verses while jumping. Find your favorite verses or use one of these:

    • Isaiah 41:10 Do not be afraid, God is with us.

    • Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through God who strengthens me.

    • Micah 6:8 What does the Lord require of you? To do justice, to love kindness, and walk humbly with God.

    • Psalm 118:24 This is the day the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it.

  • New Life Nature Hunt: Walk outside and hunt for signs of new life and spring. Look for green grass, birds and bird’s nests, flowers, bugs, buds and leaves on bushes and trees. Parental guidance required.

  • Pray The Lord’s Prayer while washing hands.

  • Walk outside and thank God for all the creations you see.
