When I Grow Up, I Want to be a Pastor (ISBN 978-1-925650-22-8)

Have you helped a new child in class feel included?
Do you notice how others are feeling and are Ready to listen and care for them?
Do you like to show and share with others
what it is like to follow Jesus?
Maybe God has given you
the gifts to serve Him as a Pastor.
