KIDZ ALIVE

“KIDZ ALIVE”
It is our desire to reach as many children in the Kezi community as possible. We want to see the children living for and loving God.
Our core value as KIDZ ALIVE is Live and Love God and our focal scripture is Acts 17:28 ‘For in him we live and move and have our being’. It’s amazing seeing the energy and vibrancy of children. Their zest for LIFE is a beautiful sight and their desire to learn, inspiring. But, more so, seeing and knowing God’s heart toward children is what motivates us. God loves children so much.

At Crossroads Community Church we have seen the Kidz work grow from 4 minimum to 133 maximum. It is so exciting working with the children and seeing them loving and playing with each other and loving God. The eagerness of the children is felt as some of them walk as far as 15km to be with us on a Sunday.



At present we have divided our children into 3 groups: the Tiny Tots 3 – 5 year olds, the Mini Zone 6 – 9 year olds and the Y- Zone 10 – 12 year olds. We have a few 13 and 14 year olds who enjoy being part of KIDZ ALIVE.

The Kidz facilitators are amazing. They are really passionate about the children and want to see them grow in Christ.

Some comments from 3 of them:
Pretty Moyo (10 – 12 year olds) They have such a desire for God.
Kingdom Moyo (6 – 9 year olds) They are easy to teach and such fun.
Honest Ndlovu (3 – 5 year olds) I enjoy this age group. They respond well to love and praise.



Psalm 127:3 says "Children are a heritage from the Lord......" and in Matthew 19:14, Jesus is speaking and he says,"Let the little children come to me,.........; for of such is the kingdom of heaven."
