Today’s big announcement: ACMA

What if…
There was a way to raise the standard of children’s ministry across America?

What if…
There was a better way to encourage and assist local children’s ministers at the local level?

What if…
American children’s ministers coordinated together to impact a small nation where 50% of the people…were children?

What if…
A church had a recognizable symbol that indicated to parents that it placed value children’s ministry?

What if…
There was a professional association for children’s ministers that helped bring all of this together?

What if…
It starts today?

I am excited about the new American Children’s Minister’s Association. Not only because I serve on the board, but because of how it’s going to change the face of children’s ministry. The ACMA will not only raise the flag for children’s ministry on a large scale but will elevate the standard of children’s ministry on a local church level. Here are some words that describe what ACMA is all about:

Encouragement
Collaboration
Recognizable symbol
Professional association
High standard
Consistency in churches
Local chapters
Exchange ideas
Global reach
Cool benefits

Enough from me. You need to check out ACMA for yourself and consider joining. For more information visit the website at www.acmaonline.org or call the ACMA office at 859.245.9530.
