Answer:
Children’s ministry is exceptionally important. I can vouch for that first-hand. I first came to know Christ when I was a child, through the ministry of volunteers who taught the Bible in my school. As I’ve served on various ministry teams, I’ve had the joy of sharing the Bible with children. I’ve also had the privilege of working directly alongside vocational children’s ministers, and had a lot of fun in the process. I’ve seen first-hand how valuable children’s ministry is and how much of a difference it makes, not only to the lives of children themselves (including my own children), but also to the lives of their families (including to my own family as I was growing up), and in fact to the church family as a whole.
To do children’s ministry well, you need great theological depth. As I teach theological students at Moore College, one of the things I often highlight is that children’s ministers need exceptionally good theological training. Why is that? Well, when you’re teaching adults, it’s possible to get away with just regurgitating big words and technical stuff. Adults are polite, and they’ll often at least pretend they know what you’re talking about. But children won’t let you do that. To teach children, you need to understand your theology so well that you can boil it all down to a few simple points that children can process. You also need to understand the wider implications of that theology so well that you can lovingly and rightly apply it to their individual lives. Doing that properly takes great theological depth and skill. Now of course, the same is true in ministry to adults; and of course, it’s possible in children’s ministry to simplify things wrongly, and so teach in a way that’s highly accessible but still wrong. So really, we all need good theology. But still, children’s ministers—those whose task it is to take the great truths of the God of the universe and make them accessible for children—need especially good theological training to do their task well.
In this part of his letter to the Ephesians, Paul the apostle does children’s ministry. There’s a lot we can learn from Paul here, both about the gospel, and about the value and significance of children’s ministry itself:
Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. “Honour your father and mother”, which is the first commandment associated with the promise: “so that it may be well with you and you may have a long life on the earth.”
Ephesians and that is my summary why I should obey my parents.

Sorry, but you're out of your mind if you think someone is going to write 5 paragraphs
<span>3 a letter of application<span> </span></span>
An example is:
When seeking approval from a manager, the most appropriate and professional manner of requesting for a time off is, I would like to request a 15-day leave of absence starting December 13, 2011. It's straight to the point stating what your request is, the number of days leave and the start date of leave. It can then be supported by other statements. We can put the whole letter this way:
Dear Manager,
<span>I would like to request for a 15-day leave of absence starting December 13, 2011. I think this is the best time to take a break as I will be flying back home to spend my Christmas vacation with my family. That will also give me enough time before Christmas to buy gifts for my friends and loved ones. </span>
Rest assured, any deliverables will be done prior to the start of the requested date of leave.
Hoping for a positive response.
Thank you.
