NOTE: To be sensitive to those doing KidsGames in various parts of the world, we have used the name “SportsKids” in the Lausanne Document

We can have a church that … Commits resources Builds relationships with communities Allows children a voice Allows children to be in the midst of all its activities

We can build a world where children are … Safe, cared for and can live in hope. Given opportunities to know and respond to love of Jesus. Encouraged to bring hope, healing, comfort and Jesus to one another. Discipled, whatever their family or faith background.

We can create families who … Move beyond healthy nurture into their God-ordained role as spiritual care-givers. Are empowered to be the models of Christian values. Are equipped to create Christian traditions in their home.

We can aspire to Theological Institutions which … Allow a theology of childhood to inform all disciplines. Esteem children’s ministers as highly as all other in ministerial training. Create a synergy between theory and practice that is routed in the harsh realities of a child’s world

We can make all of this possible when we establish partnerships that … Recognise that together we can do more than we can ever do alone. Combine the strengths and resources of children, family, church, organisations and institutions across nations.
