Oak Park Pentecostals

Oak Park Church Inc. will mount a collaborative effort involving 11 UPCI congregations of varying sizes across seven states to design and implement inclusive and culturally adaptive children's ministry programs that deepen children's faith, prayer lives, and worship engagement. The cohort will gather virtually after an initial in-person meeting to discover how each congregation integrates arts, music, drama, and multimedia into children's ministry programs and multigenerational congregation services. The first cohort will share their children's ministry program knowledge, ideas, and resources through a website, social media platforms, and an app. The first cohort will then mentor ten smaller congregations or church plants to equip them with resources, funding, and technical assistance to build nurturing children's programs
