The administrative side of kids ministry seems to be the last area given attention because there are only so many hours in a day and most of those hours are spent recruiting, preparing lesson, or teaching. But the truth is if some time is not devoted to the "paperwork" part of ministry you end up spinning your wheels and going nowhere. If you want your children's ministry to thrive and grow it has to be organized administratively. To help you in this area we suggest you find someone in your church that loves to organize things and has the gift of administration and ask them to volunteer 1 or 2 hours a week to help in this area. AND, to save you from having to start from scratch we've included various documents below that you can download, that will give you a place to begin organizing.
