The Children's Ministries department is dedicated to the support and training of the leaders and teachers of the children in our churches across the conference. Children's ministries takes place at churches, camp meetings, and evangelistic meetings. Each year, the department supports churches as they conduct Vacation Bible School and Sabbath School in their areas.
