Shawn King, left, director of Children’s Ministry at First Methodist Church in Geneseo, chats with seven-year-old Carline Gramling, daughter of Marley and Brennon Gramling, about the Ignite Children’s Program at First Methodist Church. The program, open to all students in grades k-5, will be held from 3:30 to 5 p.m. on Wednesdays, beginning Oct. 4, when school is in session.

Transportation will be provided for students at Northside, Millikin and Southwest schools.

Shawn King said, “Ignite is based on the Team Kids curriculum called ‘Faithful Promises’. Through this program, we will lead kids to discover the steadfast faithfulness of God through Old Testament promises. Kids will explore details of the major covenants promised in the Old Testament and connect the bigger reality of God’s faithfulness to their every circumstance.”

Healthy snacks will be provided at the beginning of the program, King added….”Children will rotate through an opening session, games, Bible activities, and mission stations.”

Registration may be made online at www.peopleneedjesus.org/ignite or by contacting Shawn King at s.king@peopleneedjesus.org or by calling 309-944-2793.
