Effective Curriculum Design Framework for Children's Educational Ministry in Kenya: Focus on the Anglican Church

The Ministry of Christian Education for children in the Anglican Church in Kenya has, over time, remained a challenge. Notably, one of the factors hindering its development is the lack of a proper, well-structured curriculum in the Church setting. The Church is mandated to teach and instruct its members on biblical truths. Therefore, there is a need to develop more effective Bible teaching programs so that the Christian faith will become an integral part of its members' lives. Hence, when teaching children, the Bible, one must encourage and assist them to engage, act upon, and interact with the Bible as much as possible. This paper examines an effective curriculum design framework for children's educational ministry in Kenya. The empirical study was undertaken in the Anglican Church of Kenya. Thus, the findings can be used to help in curriculum development for Sunday school in churches with a similar context.
