Matthew 19:14 - But Jesus said, "Let the children alone, and do not hinder them from coming to Me; for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these."
Indeed, how precious are the souls of our innocent children. David wrote in Psalms 127:4, Like arrows in the hand of a warrior, So are the children of one's youth. Likewise, blessed is the church whose spiritual quiver is full of young children. Here at Rockledge, we recognize the awesome power that lies within each child. The power to some day work diligently to destroy the works of Satan. The question is, what are we as parents and the Lord's church doing to ensure that our "arrows" are aimed well?
Our children's program helps to instill in them a heart that loves God above all else. In our Bible classes, we strive to teach our young children the wonderful stories of the Bible. Stories of outstanding faith and trust in God. Stories that teach our children that God loves them, wants to have a relationship with them, and is the Supreme Being who has created the wonderful world in which we live. Our program also provides times of service projects, fun outings, and other such times of fellowship where our children can be around Christian friends and begin stimulating one another to love and good deeds (Hebrews 10:24) from an early age. By doing so, they will be well equipped to enter the world of the teenager with boldness and courage in the Lord.
We are continuing to grow and we would love to have you and your children be involved with us. Our children's program is overseen by one of our deacons and the activities are scheduled and carried out by parents and volunteers. By this, our young children are provided with a nurturing atmosphere of love and godliness as they grow in the ways of the Lord. So come grow with us!
