Children are the most needed people in this world and their contribution will always be significant where recognize or not .

2 take time to listen from them regardless of what they are talking
3 know each child as an individual and identify their special abilities and develop them
4 Become a children protecting agent at all cost.

I have been a pastor for more than ten years, therefore I can tell you without hesitation that children are the most obedient Christian in the current church. I love working with children and youth. When God called me to pastoral ministry while I was in my final year in the university, studying bachelor degree in banking and finance, my field of concentration was children and youth.
The following are supportive ways on influencing children.
i. Loving them and showing them by deeds that you love them.
ii. Becoming their role model, whatever I plan children to do, I do with them, I teach them how to do it, Children love learning by doing. So you have to be the role model, this helps to inspire them.
iii. Encouraging them when they feel they can't reach their full potential, for example when they fail in exams, encourage them not to give up, they can start again and win.
iv. Protecting them spiritually and physically, praying for them and making sure that they are safe, dealing with anyone trying to breach rights of children and youth legally.
v. Being supportive, children and youth who are coming from vulnerable background support them.
vi. Positive gifts to encourage them from their academic journey, eating together with children and youth, in Africa context, food is powerful to influence, when it is used positively, it can influence children and youth to love God.
