About Momentum
We’ve all adjusted admirably to changes brought on by the pandemic. But let’s face it. Many of our children’s ministries have been hit hard. Momentum is a three-hour event you don’t want to miss. It’s especially crafted to give you concrete tools to kickstart your outreach to children and the families in your congregation.
