The Four Pillars of MC Kids Ministry

These four pillars—Joy, Security, Discipleship, and Presence—are the foundation of a Spirit-led, presence-driven children’s ministry.

Joy – A Culture of Celebration

“The joy of the Lord is your strength.” – Nehemiah 8:10

• Joy is a supernatural fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23). It is not dependent on circumstances but is a result of living in God’s Presence (Psalm 16:11).
• Jesus endured suffering because of the joy set before Him (Hebrews 12:2), showing us that joy is rooted in hope and relationship with the Father.

Joy is Evidence of God’s Presence
