So, why would Crossroaders want to come to a family worship experience
in addition to attending kids and adult worship experiences?
A Shared Experience
Kid Fusion is a worship experience for the whole family. It's especially for families with kids 5th grade and younger. In Kid Fusion, kids AND their parents come together to learn a virtue, a character trait, like Responsibility, Individuality, and Cooperation. When kids and parents come together for a shared experience they can talk about what they learned on Sunday ALL WEEK at home.
Research Shows...
According
to research done by George Barna most parents want to be the spiritual
leaders for their kids. Parents generally feel they are responsible for
the kids moral and spiritual development. The problem is that a lot of
parents don't know what to do. They don't have the tools they need to
be the spiritual leaders for their kids. A lot of parents believe if
they bring their children to church once a week, the church will take
care of the rest. If you take out sick days and vacations, at church
we only have about 40 hours a year to impact the life of a child.
Parents, however have 3000 hours a year to impact the lives of their
children. 40 hours or 3000 hours??? It's pretty obvious who has the
greater potential for influence.So it's our job at Crossroads
to use our 40 hours to equip parents, to give them the tools they need
to be the spiritual leaders for their families with their 3000 hours.
That's why we are beginning Kid Fusion, a family worship experience.
After attending Kid Fusion, parents and kids will be able to talk about
what they learned TOGETHER all week long. Families will be able to work
together to apply the virtue they are learning about to their every day
life. Because of Kid Fusion families will be fueled to take their next
steps toward Christ.
