THE MINISTRY ARK CURRICULUM IS...

Biblically Based

We always start with the passage, not the theme. So our planning takes into consideration what the passage is trying to say, rather than trying to shoehorn a message into a passage that was never intended to carry that word.

Encounter Focused

We value helping kids encounter Christ. That’s why we give you plenty of ideas to help create space for encounter within your lessons. Prayer activities, worship song ideas and sensory activities help children to explore their feelings of awe and wonder towards their loving Father God. These times allow the Holy Spirit to work on their hearts as you minister.

Relevant

Our teaching series focus on relevant Bible passages and themes to the 5-11s age group. We use object lessons that are relevant to kids incorporating objects that they are familiar with and take into account their cultural context.

Relational

We use discussion questions to get kids talking and provide opportunities for children to work together in different activities. Children love to come back to church when they have built friendships with the other children, discussion helps children to connect.

Interactive

The best lessons are those that involve the children and give them things to do. Many children are kinaesthetic learners – they need to actively be involved. That’s why we have a variety of rotation stations and activities that children can engage with in the lesson.

Fun Filled!

Children love learning when learning is made fun! Many problems stem from Bible lessons becoming too boring or irrelevant; children start to act out and don’t want to come back. Our curriculum helps you to make your ministry fun, whilst still focussing on your primary goal: ministering Christ to and with kids.

The Ministry Ark Membership HELPS KIDS ENCOUNTER CHRIST and GO DEEPER IN THEIR WALK WITH HIM.

WORSHIP SONG IDEAS

Each lesson comes with a Pinterest Board full of ideas of worship songs you can use with the lesson. We also include extra activities such as craft links and links to videos of the Bible stories.

PRAYER ACTIVITIES

Our lessons are wrapped in prayer. You’ll be given a prayer or prayer activity to help land your teaching point and help kids encounter Christ in a relevant way.

FAMILY DEVOTIONALS

One of our learnings from the pandemic was how important families are to the faith formation of children. That’s why we include a family devotional with our newest lessons. Families can use the devotional at any time in the week, you can email it to them or give them a printed version. It’s completely up to you!

KIDS DEVOTIONALS

Giving children the opportunity to go deeper in their own devotional each week is one of the passions of our curriculum. Our prayer is to see kids take what they learn on a Sunday into the rest of their week.

AND SO MUCH MORE…!

We have so many resources within the curriculum to help you make the most of your ministry times including games, craft, social media images, bumper videos and more…

TRAINING THAT WILL TAKE YOU FROM KIDMIN NEWBIE TO KIDMIN NINJA!

OUR COURSE PROGRESS PATH:

Our course progress path will take you on a journey to grow and multiply yourself and your ministry with training from top kidmin leaders.

Each step on the path will help you to think through how you love those you lead, including your kids, families and volunteers. You’ll also consider how you plan elements within your ministry such as your lessons, events, your year and your social media scheduling. You will develop tools for how you lead games, worship, encounter times, lessons and more. Finally you will develop ways to review your ministry and strategise how you can see it grow and multiply.

BUILDING YOUR KIDS MINISTRY JUST GOT EASIER!

FAQ:

I’M FROM A SMALL CHURCH, CAN I GET A SCHOLARSHIP?

We want to help small churches provide top quality resources to the children and families in their communities. If you would struggle to finance the payment each month we’d ask you to prayerfully consider what you could afford and contact us via the online form to apply for a partial scholarship (paying $5 and up per month). We no longer do full scholarships as we have found people often do not use the resources when they have not had to invest in them.

HOW OFTEN WILL I GET ACCESS TO A NEW TEACHING SERIES?

When you open your membership you will receive the first teaching series. After the length of that series is over you will receive a new one. It is upto you if you begin the series straight away, or stagger it so that your church can decide when to use it for themselves. To find out which series you will have access to you will need to view the members scope and sequence. You will only have access to the series that have been released during the time you have been a member. That means you have access to all the latest series. However, there will be a 50% discount for members that want to purchase any older series on the main Ministry Ark website.

WHY ARE ALL YOUR TEACHING SERIES NO LONGER FREE?

Creating free material is something I (Katy Herrera – the Creator) love. However, it isn’t always easy to keep creating content. It takes me time to create. I believe that with all the free content I have created, those that love the material will know that it is worth paying for. This will help me to fund bigger projects in the future.

CAN I CANCEL ANYTIME?

The membership is a monthly membership but you can cancel at any time. If you ever re-sign up you should be able to see the previous teaching series you had access to.

CAN I SHARE THE TEACHING SERIES?

Buying a membership means that you pay for the number of users that can have access to these resources. You will be unable to share any of the resources with those that do not have a login.

We are 99% certain you’re going to love this membership, and that’s one reason why our current refund rate is so low. We want to make sure that you’re 100% happy with membership and your purchasing experience which is why we always offer a full, no fuss money back guarantee (for the first 30 days) if it turns out it’s not for you for whatever reason.
