*Key Question: What is the goal of worship in each ministry environment?
Helpful hints for Preschool Worship:
- It's important to make time to do worship each and every week
- Remember their attention spans (not super complicated, long or with too many words)
- 2-3 minutes tops per song
- “We sing to Jesus because its a way we can show Jesus we love Him”
Helpful hints for Preteen Worship:
- “Leading worship is more about your leadership ability than your musical ability”
- Needs to bridge the gap between Kids and Students – help them understand WHAT WORSHIP IS and WHY WE DO IT
- Know your blend of kids (grade/developmental levels)
Tips for Volunteers:
- Realize that someone believes in you and has entrusted you to this role
- Spend time preparing each week – there is freedom in preparation
- Smiles and wearing bright/bold colors engage the audience
- If talking is not natural to you, type out your thoughts to intro or transition songs
- Those not on stage… fully engage and be excited about worship even if the kids are not
Action Items
