Abstract: Like every adult Christian, the growing child is led to attend worship every Sunday. However, it is difficult to adapt regular worship for children’s language, since it is adults who are primarily concerned by biblical messages. This raises the problem of teaching children the word of God so that they can understand it and put it into practice in a setting such as a worship for children. The best would be to prepare a lesson beforehand. The methodology would like the first preparation to be done individually and then grouped with the other teachers in order to agree on a single message to be given to the children on Sundays. It would also be necessary to agree on attractive teaching methods to always keep children alert, to adapt a language easily understood by them. Finally, to teach this lesson, the Instructor must make every effort to prevent the child from being distracted at the time of the lesson: this may be due to the instructor’s outfit, or the dull voice tone. At the end of the races, a good preparation and presentation is only very successful to the point where the children of other churches find themselves in our churches. The direct consequence is that the other faiths are therefore obliged to adapt a worship for the children at the risk of seeing them change their obedience once they have grown up.
