THE TREASURE HUNT
(Program is geared towards Elementary and Middle School Aged Children. We welcome High School Aged Children to participate as Volunteers.)
This Epic Treasure Hunt is designed to help children find the ultimate treasure which is Jesus!  The Hunt is comprised of 13 stations.  Each station corresponds with the chapters of the book Steps to Christ. When the children arrive, they will be placed in groups.  Each group will start at a different station and throughout the week the groups will rotate through the different stations. At each station there is an interactive activity that must be completed in order to unlock the clue needed to find the treasure! Now that sounds like fun!
TREASURE HUNT STATIONS
Station 1 - God's Love for Man
​
At this station the children will learn how much God truly loves them. Let's be real. Would you want to follow someone that doesn't love you?
Station 2 - Our Need of Christ
​
Many children do not see a need for Jesus. At this station Jesus will be made relevant to them and they will see why they also need Jesus.
Station 3 - Repentance
​
What is repentance? How does that relate to me? This is what we will be discovering at this station.
Station 4 - Confession
​
Many children have a hard time acknowledging when they do something wrong. Many times they are fearful of the consequences. This station demonstrates the positives and blessings in confessing.
Station 5 - Consecration
​
When a child chooses Jesus, they may be wondering, "What's next?" "How do I live my life now?" This station explores that in a fun way.
Station 6 - Faith and Acceptance
​
Faith is a key element in choosing Christ for your life. Through interactive activity at this station, we hope to develop and strengthen the children's faith in Jesus.
Station 7 - The Test of Discipleship
​
"What does a Disciple's heart look like?" After choosing Christ we are all tested. We will dive into this subject at this station.
Station 8 - Growing up into Christ
​
"I'm still a child. I still get things wrong. If I mess up will Christ be upset with me?" At this station we will demonstrate what it means to grow in Christ and answer this question.

​
"Is there something I can do for Jesus as a child?" Yes there is. At this station, the children will learn practical ways they can work for Jesus.

​
"What would Jesus Do?" To follow Jesus, you must know him. We will show how Jesus is relatable and relevant to children at this station.
Station 11 - The Privilege of Prayer

"I don't know how to pray." This might be a concern for a child. They will leave this station, learning how to comfortably talk to their Creator and also feel a part of a praying community.
Station 12 - What to Do with Doubt
We all struggle with doubt. How much more children who are learning about Jesus. At this station, we hope to give enough evidence about Jesus and His goodness so children can counteract the doubts in their hearts.
Station 13 - Rejoicing in the Lord
​
Rejoicing in Christ comes from a place of gratefulness. At this station, the children will understand all of the wonderful things Jesus has done for them and learn fun ways to rejoice in Him.
