Why?

• Children are in the age group most receptive to the gospel.
• Of a group of 4 to 13 year olds, 32 out of every 100 will respond positively to a call to receive Christ. This number drops to only 4 out of 100 teenagers, and only comes up to 6 out of 100 adults. (Barna Research Group)
• By the year 2010, half of the world's population will be under the age of 18.
• Today, only 20 percent of the children in America go to church. We need to reach the other 80 percent in another way.
• Why not help these children prepare for eternity when they are young—with most of their lives still in front of them?

• Uses our homes in a non-threatening environment to glorify God by bringing children to Christ.
• Easy and simple ways to share Christ clearly with many children at one time.
• Builds relationships in a fractured world.
• Counteracts the isolation and cocooning of our culture. Many children are never invited into someone's home.
• It has the potential to reach not only the children but also entire families for Christ.
