Especially with a lot of working moms and dads, a lot of times parents can bring their children in but they need a ride home. The church has always had a van ministry.

We are available for any kids. We've got hispanic children. We've got white children, everyone ... I tell the kids that when God looks at us, we are all equal in his eyes. Our souls are all the same. That's what I want the kids to learn.

We feel it's another tool for the church to use. Obviously, the children don't drive. Our availability is out there and our goal is to minister to kids.

That's one time I really want to have for the kids because it's their time to get together and build relationships.

You just need a bus if you're going to have activities. Then, you can do things off church property. It's kind of exciting for the kids, to go somewhere without mom or dad, it's an adventure for them.

We almost fill the bus up. It's just nice to have everyone together.
