Church leaders’ lives are defined by service. So let’s help our kids do two things: be more aware of how much those leaders actually serve them—and practice giving back through service.
Some of your children may understand very well what it means to be in need, and others may not. Either way, we can cultivate compassion in kids when we help them learn about the real needs of those in our communities and around the world.
Family members can be the toughest people to serve. We’re with them through thick and thin, and parents’ service to kids can easily go unnoticed. Additionally, service to siblings may not come naturally. Encouraging this practice with kids at a young age will make it more natural as kids grow older.
Jesus commanded us to “love your neighbor as yourself.” But in today’s busy world, it takes intentional effort to know our neighbors, let alone serve them. Encouraging kids to serve their neighbors will not only help kids get to know them, but also show them Jesus’ love.
Children can pretend to stand on the five radiating circles of service: God, family and friends, church family, community, and world. (If you have fewer than five kids, have them stand in a regular circle.) Close with the following prayer. Pray: Dear God, as we stand in a circle, we know that you are at the center of our lives.

Start with a devotional and end with a debriefing time to talk about what they did and why they did it. Use Matthew 25:31-46 for a devotion. 5. Lastly, stay involved. Have kids minister on a regular basis. If we simply take our kids to do service once a year, they’ll learn that service once a year is acceptable.
