Proverbs 22:6 says, "Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it." We recognize that, as parents, your job to train your children God's way is an awesome privilege and a huge responsibility. We want to provide the best support we can by offering Christ-centered programs for all of our kids, from birth through the teen years. These programs provide a place to reinforce the truths you're teaching your children at home. They also allow your children to practice the skills they are learning such as serving others in ministry and being involved in small groups in order to continually grow in their walk with God.
