"When the child of God looks into the Word of God and sees the Son of God, he is changed by the Spirit of God into the image of God for the glory of God."
- Warren Wiersbe
Each week, hundreds of volunteers from area churches gather in public elementary schools across our ministry area to teach children from the Word of God. Through teaching and building relationships with children, volunteers have the opportunity to share God's plan of salvation and disciple believing children in their relationships with Christ.
