Children’s Ministry

Children’s Ministry

We offer childcare for the younger ones (0 - 12yrs), beginning at 9:30 AM on Shabbat mornings and during most special services.

Shabbat Class begins at 9:30 AM Saturday mornings.

Torah Hour begins at 11:15 AM, after the children are dismissed from the Sanctuary service, and runs until the end of the service, usually around noon.

Children will sing songs for a time of worship, pray, dance, develop shul skills, and often do crafts.

They will study the weekly Torah and Haftorah portions as part of a well-researched Messianic program tailored to their age levels.

Tuesday evenings we offer a Children’s Class for ages 5 -12.

Mission Statement:

At Hope of Israel, we believe that children are the future leaders of our community and our congregation. It is our responsibility to pass the Word and Truth of Messiah from generation to generation (L’Dor V’Dor), while we develop disciples. Therefore, we include children in our services by providing classes and events for children ages 0 - 12.

The vision of Children’s Ministry is to:

  1. Teach children how to love and enjoy Messiah in order to be disciples that are witnesses to Israel and of Israel.

  2. Train children to be instruments of G-d’s grace, exhibiting love in their thoughts, deeds and words that they may glorify G-d all their days.

  3. Collaborate with parents to equip their children to be active in evangelism, effective in discipleship, and powerful in prayer.
