Kids Friendly is an initiative of the Presbyterian Church of Aotearoa that recognises the vital contribution children and families make to healthy congregations and aims to equip churches to intentionally minister to children and families. The Kids Friendly Coach offers advice, training, coaching and “best practice” resources to all Presbyterian and Uniting churches.
If you are committed to intentionally ministering to children and families, we encourage you to join the Kids Friendly network. Network members receive a Kids Friendly best practice manual (including 20 resources) and regular Kids Friendly news of children’s ministry training events and resources. They can also access advice and training from the Kids Friendly coaches and receive “Hands On”, our Kids Friendly newsletter packed full of inspirational stories from our churches. You may also opt to review your church’s ministry to children using the Kids Friendly Self-Review resource and call your church “Kids Friendly”.
