Kids are ready and open to have parents speak into their lives and pass down faith in their home. Rites of Passage is an experience between you as a parent and your child where truth or ideas are passed from you to them.
We'll give you the tools you'll need to carry out a Rites of Passage Experience each year including:
- A Planning Guide to walk you through the resources and the actual ceremony
- Videos explaining the why and how of each Rite of Passage
- Kick Starters for Biblical family discussion time to lead up to the experience.
