HelloBaby: Ministry Begins in the Nursery<\/b><\/h2>\n

Many churches unintentionally treat the nursery as a holding space: important, but not formative. At Amazing Life, we believe spiritual formation doesn\u2019t begin at age three or four. It begins the moment a child is born.<\/span><\/p>\n

That belief is what led to <\/span>HelloBaby<\/span><\/i><\/a>, a year-long curriculum designed specifically for infants. It centers on one simple, powerful truth that is spoken over babies again and again throughout their first year in your ministry:<\/span><\/p>\n

Jesus loves me.<\/b><\/p>\n

HelloBaby<\/span><\/i> isn\u2019t about teaching babies a lesson they can cognitively explain. It\u2019s about ministering to their spirit through gentle worship music, Scripture read aloud, and nurturing routines that communicate safety, peace, and love. <\/span><\/p>\n

How APlay Supports the Experience<\/b><\/h4>\n

HelloBaby<\/span><\/i> is delivered through <\/span>APlay<\/span><\/a> and APlay Pro, not as entertainment for babies, but as a guide for volunteers. The visuals function more like subtle digital wallpapers that move leaders through the service in a clear, organized way. Volunteers simply tap \u201cnext\u201d to move from worship to Scripture to interactive moments (including a bubble song\u2026 and yes, it\u2019s as adorable as it sounds), without juggling CDs or multiple media sources.<\/span><\/p>\n

In most churches, babies are seated in bouncers or held by volunteers and often face away from the screen. The technology supports the adults in the room; it doesn\u2019t replace relational ministry.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why Parents Notice<\/b><\/h4>\n

HelloBaby<\/span><\/i> does two important things at once. First, it ministers to babies by consistently surrounding them with truth and care. Second, it communicates tremendous value to parents. When families realize their church is doing more than \u201cbabysitting\u201d their baby, trust grows quickly.<\/span><\/p>\n

HelloBaby<\/span><\/i> is included with <\/span>Amazing+<\/b><\/a>, which bundles all Amazing Life curriculum into one unified subscription. Learn more at <\/span>joinamazing.com<\/span><\/a> <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Wonder Refresh: Expanding Ollie\u2019s World<\/b><\/h2>

If you use our preschool ministry, you already know how much kids love Ollie the owl. As Orange and Amazing Life continued to integrate, the team approached a <\/span>Wonder<\/span><\/i> refresh with great care, this wasn\u2019t change for change\u2019s sake.<\/span><\/p>

The refreshed <\/b>Wonder<\/i><\/b> keeps Ollie at the center while expanding his world in meaningful ways. <\/b>New characters have been introduced, each reflecting common personality types kids recognize in themselves and others. Stories can now unfold across a broader landscape, including forests, mountains, water, and more, giving kids a richer environment to explore biblical truth.<\/span><\/p>

This matters because research consistently shows kids are far more likely to retain and apply truth when it\u2019s delivered through characters they identify with. When a child sees a character struggle with forgiveness or fear and then grow, it helps them imagine that growth for themselves.<\/span><\/p>

A Consistent Picture of Jesus<\/b><\/h4>

You\u2019ll also notice a refreshed visual approach to Bible stories. The same depiction of Jesus that kids see in the story video is now carried through activity pages and small group materials. Over time, that consistency helps kids recognize, remember, and relate to who Jesus is.<\/span><\/p>

The first month of the Wonder refresh will be available at the end of this month. Early testing with kids has already shown strong engagement and positive feedback.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

NEXT: A Gathering for Leaders Thinking Long-Term<\/b><\/h2>

Curriculum matters, but strategy sustains faith. That\u2019s why <\/span>NEXT<\/b> exists.<\/span><\/p>

NEXT is a gathering of NextGen pastors and ministry leaders from around the world who are wrestling with the same questions: How do we disciple kids from 0\u201318 with intention? What do we do about the growing number of students walking away from faith after graduation? How do we build something cohesive?<\/span><\/p>

Unlike traditional conferences, NEXT is built around conversation. Expert voices bring data, trends, and insight, but roundtable discussions give leaders space to process together, share what\u2019s working, and learn from one another.<\/span><\/p>

Church Conference: Learning Together as a Whole Team<\/b><\/h2>

Looking ahead to 2026, the team is also preparing for <\/span>Church Conference<\/b><\/a>, formerly Orange Conference, now expanded and designed for the <\/span>entire<\/span><\/i> church team.<\/span><\/p>

Church Conference is for NextGen leaders, senior leaders, executive pastors, ministry volunteers, and more. It keeps what leaders have loved about Orange Conference while broadening the focus to reflect the reality that the local church thrives when leaders learn and align together.<\/span><\/p>

This is an opportunity for teams to travel together, grow together, and return home with shared vision and language for what\u2019s next. Learn more at <\/span>achurchconference.com<\/span><\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Why It All Matters<\/b><\/h2>

From nursery to preschool to long-term strategy, these updates are anchored by the conviction: <\/span>discipleship works best when it\u2019s intentional, consistent, and shared.<\/b><\/p>

HelloBaby<\/span><\/i> ensures truth is spoken from day one. Wonder helps preschoolers see themselves in the story and recognize Jesus consistently. NEXT and Church Conference give leaders space to connect the dots across every phase.<\/span><\/p>

We\u2019re grateful to partner with you in this work\u2014and we\u2019re excited for what God is building through His church in the year ahead.<\/span><\/p>

What you\u2019re doing for the next generation truly matters.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>
