Fresno Pacific University

Fresno Pacific University (FPU) will walk alongside small-to-mid-sized Spanish-speaking and English-speaking churches to support their efforts in nurturing the faith of children. The university will create an online Certificate in Children's Ministry & Development (Desarrollo y Ministerio de Niños) delivered entirely in Spanish to pastors and lay leaders, as a cohort. The university will host events for congregational leaders to develop skill sets centered on helping children thrive in their faith and worship journey. Pastors and lay leaders will join cohorts to support program implementation in their congregations. To share more broadly the university will host an expo-style symposium and create a monthly subscription resource.
