This article is a proposal for family worship, also called intergenerational or all-age worship. It is not just a children's service, nor an adult service in which children are onlookers.
Worship is for the whole congregation, old, young, single, married, adult and child.
It is necessary to see all members as one group, while being conscious of a diversity of people. We must give children a place in worship - so they can feel they belong. To lead the whole congregation into a meaningful corporate worship experience - an environment for all generations to be together in worship, fellowship and learning. To encourage each person, young and old, to participate meaningfully and reverently in worship. The leader's role is to lead people into an encounter with God.
