Our Mission
Reaching children around the world by equipping those who teach them.

Fifty5five exists to equip and encourage Christian children’s ministry leaders and teachers with practical tools to share the Gospel and disciple the children in their communities.

​

By mobilizing Christian volunteers with a heart for children and a commitment to the Great Commission, Fifty5five partners with churches and ministries around the world to strengthen children’s ministry and advance the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

​

Equipping Teachers for Lasting Ministry

We believe effective ministry continues long after a mission team leaves. That’s why training local teachers and ministry leaders is at the heart of what we do.

​

Fifty5five offers practical workshops designed to equip children’s ministry teams with skills they can continue using in their own churches and communities. Training may include leadership, storytelling, lesson reinforcement, life application, classroom management, and other essential areas of children’s ministry.

​

Each workshop can be tailored to the needs of the local church or ministry, providing relevant and practical training for those serving children in their unique cultural setting.

​

Putting Training Into Practice

Fifty5five also offers Vacation Bible School programs designed with two purposes: sharing the Gospel with children and giving newly trained teachers an opportunity to put what they have learned into practice.

​

Through engaging Bible lessons, worship, activities, and other age-appropriate teaching methods, children hear the Gospel of Jesus Christ presented in a way they can understand. At the same time, local teachers gain valuable hands-on ministry experience as they serve alongside the Fifty5five team.

​

Our desire is not simply to lead a program and leave, but to equip local believers to continue reaching and discipling children long after our time with them has ended.

​

Serving Through the Gifts God Has Given

Fifty5five is a faith-based nonprofit ministry made possible through volunteers who use their God-given gifts to serve His Kingdom. Our teams may include children’s ministry teachers, storytellers, worship leaders, activity leaders, writers, actors, organizers, and others who share a heart for reaching children with the Gospel.

​

Through the generosity of our volunteers and supporters, Fifty5five is grateful to provide our children’s ministry training and services free of charge.

​

Our Goals

Through every partnership, Fifty5five seeks to:

• Equip children’s ministry teachers with practical, effective teaching methods and resources.

• Encourage local churches and ministry leaders as they serve the children in their communities.

• Provide curriculum and resources suited to the specific needs of each ministry.

• Reach children with the Gospel of Jesus Christ through Vacation Bible School and other ministry opportunities.

• Respect the culture and community in which we serve, adapting our approach appropriately while remaining faithful to the Gospel.

• Strengthen local children’s ministries so that the work continues long after Fifty5five has returned home.
