Children in Action is the missions organization for boys and girls in first through sixth grades. The curriculum is written in such a way that all six grades can work together or smaller groups can be formed within age groupings.
Members of CiA, known as agents, are encouraged to help choose, plan and conduct monthly missions activities, known as Live Action Projects. Scripture comprehension and application are focused on throughout the curriculum.
The CiA pledge illustrates the purpose of Children in Action:
“As a member of Children in Action,
I will pray for missions,
give to missions,
learn about missions,
and do missions through the power of Christ.”
Through CiA, agents begin to realize that missions is possible as they learn how missionaries fulfill their call. They also begin to realize that they can make a difference in their world as they respond to the needs that are around them.
The CiA prayer calendar provides a Missionary Kid (MK) for whom the agents pray through the following week.
If you want to begin a new CiA organization in your church, please contact Cara Lynn Vogel. (Your church even may qualify to receive free curriculum for a year!)
The Children in Action motto states, “Send Me!” (Isaiah 6:8)
are you willing to help children respond to the call?
