The Joy Jam: a Just-For-Fun Event Guide for Children's Ministry EVENT CATEGORY: Just-For-Fun SPIRITUAL HABIT: Spend Time with Others AGE GROUP: Elementary & Preschool For a well-rounded and holistic approach to your ministry events, there are 10 different kinds of events we recommend including in your annual event strategy. The category for this event is a JUST-FOR-FUN EVENT. This type of event is focused on relationship-building! Through fun, games, laughter, and teamwork, kids and teenagers get to practice the spiritual habit of spending time with others. The winter season - especially around the holidays - is full of gratitude, hope, and JOY! All those things are worth celebrating, don't you think?! Joy Jam takes celebration to the next level! Drawing from the practice of festivals in the Old Testament, families will celebrate Jesus through singing, dancing, and eating activities in a carnival-style event. Why not kick off the season with a bang and REALLY celebrate, with this jam themed event! All our events are built to be flexible! You can customize this event to your ministry's needs, but here's how we recommend using this one: Use this event one day at your church to allow kids and their families to come together to celebrate together.
