Know

We believe that children have the ability to learn deep biblical truth at a young age.  For this reason, we have chosen a curriculum that provides God-centered lessons that will equip them with a strong foundation of God’s truth and a biblical worldview.  All those who participate in Broken Buns will learn who God is, who He has made us to be, His plans for us and this world and His work of salvation for His people.  Our desire is that through the study of scripture the children as well as the leaders of broken buns will want to know and appreciate the value of God’s Word. 

 “I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you.”  - Psalm 119:11

 “Train a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it.”

- Proverbs 22:6

Grow

It is our mission at Broken Buns to provide biblical teaching and instruction in a caring environment where children can draw closer to Jesus Christ and learn to seek Him earnestly.  Our Godly teaching focuses on cultivating the heart to grow in love for God and trust in His promises, rather than just seeking to change behaviour.

Also, through the edification of fellowship with brothers and sisters in Christ, children are able to engage in active dialogue about the truths they have learned in scripture as well as learn how to apply their faith in daily living. 

We also celebrate the family as the primary environment where children are spiritually nurtured.  Therefore, our children’s ministry is supplemental to what ideally happens in every child’s home during the week.  We want to support parents by providing supplies and resources to encourage them as they raise their children up to obey and follow God.   

 “And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise.” 

- Deuteronomy 6:6-7

Show

As the body of believers we exist to bless others simply because we have been blessed.  Human life is utterly unique among all created life because humans are created in the image of the creator with the capacity to consciously enjoy and glorify God.  The value of human life is the amazing potential to reflect the glory of God through faith and God-centered good deeds.  We want children to explore how God has created them and how they can serve others with the talents God has given them.  We also want to give the children opportunity to engage in meaningful Kingdom work and show them by example how to love, care for and serve those around them.  

 “Let no one look down on your youthfulness, but rather in speech, conduct, love, faith and purity, show yourself an example of those who believe.” 

- 1 Timothy 4:12
