Churches:

First-Time Visitors: Include The Story of Jesus for Children video as a gift in your visitor packet.

Commitment Sunday: Evaluate the spiritual life of children in your Sunday/church school. Make sure each child is given the opportunity to ask Jesus into his life. Consider having a "Commitment Sunday" the first Sunday of your Sunday school year, during Christmas, Palm Sunday, Easter Sunday, or the last Sunday of your Sunday school year. Guidlines to help you plan the event and training materials are available.

Sunday School: Use The Story of Jesus for Children as a "launching pad" for a study of Biblical truth in your children's Sunday school classes. A 5-lesson accompanying teacher/mentor's guide, specifically developed for use with the video, will be available after May.

Vacation Bible School: The video presents the story of Jesus from the announcement of His conception to His death and resurrection. It ends with Sara and Benjamin challenging the audience (i.e. all the children at your VBS!) to invite Jesus into their lives. What better way to wrap up a time of vacation Bible school than with an invitation like this?

Clubs: Schedule a showing of The Story of Jesus for Children for a club/Bible study night (e.g. AWANA, Pioneer Girls, Boys Brigade).

Awards: Use The Story of Jesus for Children videos as special prizes for activities/games. These might include excellent attendance, Bible memorization, bringing the most friends, or showing the video to friends.

Build a special evangelistic movie night out of The Story of Jesus for Children. Invite children to bring friends and family and provide popcorn, juice, or other treats. At the end distribute "The Greatest Promise" booklets to all the children. Activities, materials, and training are available to help you with this event.

Make The Story of Jesus for Children available through your church library and/or bookstore.

Show The Story of Jesus for Children to young mothers and/or fathers, encouraging them to borrow your church's copy to help them reach their children for Jesus.
