EveryChild Training
“Let the little children come to Me…” — Mark 10:14
At Quaboag Church, we believe Jesus loves everyone. And if Jesus loves everyone, then we ought to make an effort to show the love of Jesus to every child! This includes all forms of neurodivergence includes students with special needs, autism, ADHD, difficult trauma responses, or just having a bad day. Our EveryChild Training is designed to help our church do a much better job loving children (and their families) and ensure that anyone walking through our doors knows that Jesus loves them!
Through this training, we’ll explore how God’s invitation to His Kingdom includes every child — and how we, as His Church, can reflect that love by showing up with empathy, patience, and joy. You’ll gain practical tools, new perspective, and a deeper understanding of how to make our ministry spaces safe and welcoming for all.
This is more than training — it’s an opportunity to partner with God’s heart. Whether you already serve or are simply curious if this might be your place to make a difference, come join us to learn what it means to love EveryChild.
