"The Importance of the Teachers by Bishop Macedo"
- We need to realize we are molding the children to be servants of God
- We will not only touch the children but save their families through them.
- A Teacher needs to be :
1.) Dedicated
2.) Patient
-A gift to teach the children the true path of Jesus!
Note: If you are not gifted in this area it is best that you step out. You will not of course be looked bad and you will still stay as a helper. But the Kidszone has to be filled with teachers that have that desire to change the lives of the kids.

Some of her highlighted comments:
- There should be no teacher that does not want to take care of the kids because when we have a pure heart, a heart that has a desire to please God he will in turn take care of our needs because we are taking care of His wants.
- We need to have time before starting the class and give ourselves to use of the Holy Spirit. This will enable us to reach to the kids and help them through a problem that we may not know about but He does.
- One idea she suggested was that we need the kids to participate in the lesson and we should not talk through it the whole time. This will enable them to remember better.
- She has seen even some pastors, helpers, teachers having the Holy Spirit but they don't have all the 9 gifts of the holy spirit. We as teachers we have the responsibility to teach these gifts to the kids. And that is our responsibility. Sometimes the kids come from a family that they have not passed these gifts on to their kids. Our responsibility is to prepare their souls for God's kingdom.
- She also suggested that we should take at look at how we can pas on our desire to help people. One idea was to show a video of a disaster and ask them questions why there are people who are suffering but we are not. And we should have the kids think about how life (outside) is really for people. Maybe we should have a food drive! Teach the kids to pray for other people outside. It's not to make them be sad but it to make them feel that they can help them! That's how they we learn to manifest their faith.
-We need to feel or know if they have a doubt and see if they know what it means to be humble or patient and give examples.
-One great idea to do is ask "is there someone that wants us to all pray for him/her?" Is will help learn that prayer is powerful and that God is always ready to help them.
-All of this will enable the kids to have the desire to be called like David when he was a child himself. This will enable them to serve God faster because they will get to know Him early before they leave the Kids Zone.
