    Why Your Church Needs a Children’s Check-In Solution

    As child security professionals here at KidCheck, we are often asked how implementing a children’s check-in solution can benefit churches and childcare organizations.  A check-in system provides enhanced security and is vital to child safety, yet the benefits and success truly come from a combination of the check-in system itself and how well the staff in the organization uses it.

    Regardless of whether you are using an electronic solution, or other method, certain tracking and safety measures are still a necessity.  You must have accurate records of children checking in and out, know who is picking up the children in your care, be aware of any allergy or medical concerns and have a process to verify people are who they say they are.

    Jesus Understands

    The following lesson has been around for a number of years in slightly different forms. I have, however, always found it very effective in ministering God’s love to children. Therefore, I will share it here for the benefit of those to whom it is new.

    Every child will experience difficult or stressful situations at some time as they are growing up. However you can use the Easter story to show them that Jesus also had to go through many tough situations, especially at the end of his earthly life. In fact, because many of these were similar to those we may go through, He now understands how we feel at these difficult times. It is therefore a great comfort to know that when we share these hard situations with him in prayer, He understands exactly how we feel. (more…)

    God’s Extreme Makeover

    Text (Luke 24:12) But Peter jumped to his feet and ran to the tomb. He stooped to look in and saw a few grave clothes, that’s all. He walked away puzzled shaking his head. (The Message -Eugene H. Peterson)
