Children’s Equipping Center (CEC) Tracks

Children’s Tracks at onething 2012

We provide a full Children’s Equipping Center for children ages 6–12 at onething 2012. Children come with their families from all over the world and are taught the same message as the adults, but at an age-appropriate level. All Children’s track sessions are led by Lenny and Tracy LaGuardia and the CEC team.

We encourage children and parents to be equipped together during their time at IHOPKC. Therefore, all children, ages 6–12, whose parents or youth groups are registered and attending the conference may participate in CEC Equipping Tracks. There are CEC tracks during all main sessions.

What is the purpose of the CEC tracks?

  • To communicate the theme of the conference at a child’s comprehension level
  • To help children understand that they can walk in the things of God

Cost

There is a non-refundable $35 registration fee per child for the Children’s Equipping Center tracks.

What type of safety precautions does your team employ during the conference?
When you register, you (parents) and your child(ren) will each be given a wristband with a security number. In order to pick up a child, the parent and child must both show their wristbands to ensure the numbers match. Also during registration we have parents fill out a medical release form that allows us to know any special needs, allergies, etc. that your child might have. It also has personal phone contact info in case we need to call you about your child during any of the sessions. One of our staff members will be at the registration table during each of the sessions to monitor who is going into each session. If they have not been preapproved or are not a parent, they will not be allowed into the room.
