Dear God . . . I love to sing but I'm afraid to sing in public!
I understand perfectly, my little friend. I know what it's like to feel shy when I have to speak. But I have confidence in you, Adele. You'll do great! This is Wess Stafford, President of Compassion International. To be a support to the young children in the music ministry, one local church had their young singers stand one-on-one with an adult choir member — as they worshiped in song together in the adult service. That same adult choir has become "boosters" for their children's music ministry — with flyers and announcements to be sure to encourage church members to be in attendance for the next concert of the little ones. Let children know they're a priority. When they know you care, their confidence soars! This is Wess Stafford. Speak up with compassion for the children in your world.
