Do some soul searching to evaluate whether you really want to help or it is just a normal exciting feeling. You may need to seek come counseling and advice from your pastor and family members. Make sure you pray to god to give you wisdom to know whether this is His will or not.
There must be a reason why you are willing to help. Take your time to identify your objectives as well as vision and mission of what you intend to start. Your aims and objectives towards offering help should be solid and should include a plan of action, which will help you achieve the goal of being helpful to the society.
The question that you need to be asking yourself is the number of children you will be able to support. It is not always wise to pick a large number at once because you may strain ahead. The number of children you can support will be based on how much money you have placed aside for helping them. You can start with a small number and then raise that as you go along.
You will need money to support kids, and it is not going to take you 24 hours to set up a real time running ministry. Sit down and think about where to get funds. Shop around for volunteers; people with the same heart as you, and present them your proposals and see if they can help. Seek sponsorship because there are people out there who are always willing to help.
There is nothing better in an evil world than just being yourself when you are in a ministry. You started the whole of this idea with an intention to help and in that case, make sure you stick to your goals. Your objectives and aims should be to help children realize how they are important and that they can also have a future just like you secured one.
Learn to see the future. While it is not going to be easy all through, you must learn how to give the best kind of services to the children in question. Because you are going to be doing it free, always get in touch with donors to help you support the children. Remind them not give up on the ministry you have started, at least for the sake of giving these hopeless young ones a hope for the future.
If you want to run a successful childrens ministry, you must have a permit from the government. This is a just a way to make sure that you are doing something legal in the sense that the state authority recognizes it. However, seek guidance before starting anything.
