Children’s Institute
Turning the Hearts of Children to Fathers
Children’s Institutes (CI) are designed for children aged 5–12, and are held in conjunction with select Basic, Advanced, and Anger Resolution Seminars.
Godly young people volunteer as teachers, encouraging the children to develop Godly character by sharing nature stories, object lessons, and fun songs. The qualities emphasized in 2004 are: wisdom, justice, mercy, love, generosity, holiness, and victory.
Children’s Institutes teach children to strengthen family relationships and build good character, while constantly reminding them that Jesus Christ is the only source of salvation and righteousness. Children are specifically challenged to:
- accept themselves as a mistake-free creation by God.
- cheerfully obey parents, teachers, and other God-given authorities.
- build God’s truth into their lives and reject worldly lies.
- become truly successful by memorizing Scripture.
- look to Jesus Christ for salvation.
Every student in the Children’s Institute receives a sash with character buttons, a name badge, and an activity book, along with crafts that illustrate and enhance the topics covered throughout the seminar.
