CFKids Principles
CFKids could not make a successful impact in the lives of our kids without you! YOU
make the difference. You are the person checking kids in, leading a life group, or
teaching a Bible story. By serving our kids, we are impacting not only our future, but we
are changing our world today. In doing this we want to make sure that you are fully
equipped to serve. This is to help you learn more about CFKids: Everything from a big
picture look, to specific goals, guidelines and expectations, along with some additional
information that will be valuable for you to know as you are serving. If you have any
additional questions, please contact your Area Coordinator.
. . . Thank you for stepping up to reach our next generation for Christ!

And you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all

yourselves wholeheartedly to these commands that I am
giving you today. Repeat them again and again to your
children. Talk about them when you are at home and when
you are on the road, when you are going to bed and when
you are getting up. Tie them to your hands and wear them
on your forehead as reminders. Write them on the doorposts
of your house and on your gates. ~Deuteronomy 6:5-9
Milestones
A specific goal in CFKids is to help our kids and families do more than just attend
service each weekend. We want to see them take significant steps in their faith journey.
Thats why we promote and celebrate
A milestone is an event that clearly marks or defines
Gods work or presence in a persons live.
Milestone 1: Parent/Child Dedication
Parents will attend a class and discover how to become the spiritual leader for their child. They
will then participate in a Parent & Child Dedication ceremony in the main worship service.
