All across Denmark, more and more groups of children are
meeting to practice, sing, dance, and perform – all for God’s glory! The name
may not sound very Danish, but “Gospel Kids” clubs were founded in 2003 by
Inger Lise Møller as a way to bring the gospel of Jesus to young children and
teens, giving them a chance to make friends as they learn and perform Christian
songs. Today more than 20 groups meet across the country.
The program is based on the idea that kids learn best when
they have a chance to move, dance, sing, and have fun! It’s affiliated with the
Danish Indre Mission (IM-musik) and state church Sunday schools, but depends on
public donations and volunteer leadership. Most recently, Gospel Kids groups
sang at a two-day Gospel Kids Festival Jylland, which also featured choir
leader training, dance workshops, and voice training.
Here’s a sample of one of their performances.
PRAY that God
would touch more and more young people through Gospel Kids groups and
performances.
PRAY for the
volunteer leaders all across Denmark, and that God would inspire new leaders to
join in.
PRAY that people
would see the love of Christ shining clearly in these young lives.
PRAY for revival
in Denmark, and the part these children might play in it.
