Membership Matters for Kids
Church membership places us in a loving community where we learn about God’s Word, fellowship with other believers, receive Christian care, and find opportunities to give and serve others in Jesus’ name. Covenant membership in the Church of God of Prophecy is open to all believing children.
The Membership Matters for Kids guide is intended for elementary-age children and is a companion to the Membership Matters course provided by the Church of God of Prophecy International Offices.
