Guiding Our Children in Faith
Teaching our children about faith is an essential part of our mission as parents and caregivers. We take on the joy and responsibility of imparting biblical truths to the next generation. Our actions speak volumes, and as we live out our faith daily, we set an example for our children to follow. It’s more than just words; it’s about creating an environment where they can explore their beliefs and develop a personal relationship with God.

By sharing prayer, Bible stories, and discussions about their faith, we pave the way for them to grow spiritually, allowing their hearts to be open to God’s word and guidance.
