About Us
God’s Friends Ministries began in January 2021 as a kids Bible study on zoom during the pandemic as a way for four little girls to connect with God and each other. Each participant would invite a grandparent to be a special guest on zoom for a “story time” segment. We would mail each special guest a book to read to the group that was in alignment with what we were studying that week in the Bible allowing kids and grandparents to connect. The group began to expand as God was drawing more and more children to Him. As a result, children, parents, and even a Grandparent were baptized. We continue to minister to kids online and in person.
