Proverbs 22:6
Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
A child's mind is like a jell-o fruit salad. The whole idea is to get the good stuff in before the jell-o sets.
A children's ministry
Little hearts that know their Creator
God's Green Acres is a farm and sanctuary, and a children's faith-and-creation ministry. We are not a church. We write books, keep a garden, visit hospital rooms, and help neighboring ministries with the unglamorous work of sound and light.
A child's heart is still soft. The whole idea is to get the good stuff in — Scripture, soil, a story worth keeping — before the world sets.
The work
Six ways we serve
Books, dirt under the nails, quiet help for local ministries, and practical skills that still matter.
01 · Children's books
Pattern Seekers
The Pattern Seekers series gently teaches children to notice the patterns in God's creation and follow the true light that leads them home.
02 · For parents
Garden and science notes
A simple hands-on program that teaches children about God through nature. Using gardening and science, we show kids that God is the One who makes things grow.
03 · Hospital ministry
Books for the hospital
Bringing the light of God's word — and a real book to hold — to children facing hard days through book donations or deeper partnerships as the Lord leads.
04 · Local support
A/V help for local ministries
Providing technical assistance and better A/V equipment so neighboring ministries can reach more souls with God's Word.
05 · Kitchen and canning
Homesteading for kids
Kitchen basics and canning techniques that have been lost over time — practical skills that build confidence and self-reliance.
06 · Plant, tend, harvest
Gardening for kids
How to plant, grow, nurture and harvest fruits and vegetables from the garden. Hands on skills that connect God's creation to the food on the table.
Made to be given
A book in a child's hands
We make the book, then we put it where a child can find it — at home, in a classroom, or on a hospital bedside table.
Some copies will be sold when they are ready. Many will be given.
Give a book
Place a Pattern Seekers book in a child's hands. We will write you back with the simple next step.
