There is hardly a more important ministry that the church can engage in than instilling Christian truths and practices in the next generation of believers. This is a responsibility that we at Calvary Baptist Church take very seriously.

 

The importance of passing religious values and truths on to our children is seen especially in the early stages of the Old Testament (for example, see Exodus 12:26-27; Deuteronomy 4:10; Joshua 4:21-24). It was essential for the ancient Israelites to inculcate subsequent generations with their traditions and their knowledge of God.

 

Today, the struggle to teach our children the ways of the Lord is a battle for the minds of our young ones. This battle is a war against secular philosophies in the schools, worldly media on the TV and radio, and the carnal influence of unbelieving peers. We believe that the only way to win this war is by the Spirit of God working on the hearts of kids through the Word of God which we teach to them with conviction, commitment and creativity. It is our privilege to instill the next generation of Christ with the truths and values that have become so important to us as adults.

 

Calvary Baptist Church has Sunday School classes for children of all ages up through the turbulent teen years. These meet during Bible Hour from 9:15 – 10:15 every Sunday morning. In Sunday School, our children can learn and grow in a safe and nurturing environment.

Our children are the legacy we leave to a corrupt and dying world. And thus, training them from the beginning to become fully functioning followers of Christ is one of the most significant enterprises and responsibilities that we have.
