The Children’s Leadership Forum is a pre-conference for children’s ministry leaders, children’s choir directors, Sunday School teachers, parents, grandparents, pastors, and anyone who cares about seeing the next generation inspired to sing the glories of Christ. Stay tuned — more details to come soon! Provided in partnership with the Virginia Martin Howard Foundation.
