The letters A-W-E stand for Advocacy, Worship and Education – the three teams that compose AWE – Children’s Ministries. With a sense of vision of what we were to be about it wasn’t long before we developed a Mission Statement and Team Goals (see box). In addition to these goals, we plan to sponsor a Children’s Day with the Bishop, to revamp The Christian Educator and to increase the ways we communicate information to interested parties and parishes.

This new vision and expanded understanding of Children’s Ministries arises out of our call through the Children’s Charter to be a church that not only cares for and ministers to children but also recognizes that children minister to us. Children are an awesome gift from God. Children look to God with awe in a way that often escapes adults. Our God gives us an awesome task to care for and minister to children and an awesome gift in being ministered to by children.
