The future of our children in the Church depends on their parents and dedicated Bible class teachers. With this kind of training and support, our children develop valuable morals and a strong faith that must serve them the rest of their lives. Without a strong faith, these children are at the ruthless mercy of Satan. It is our responsibility to arm them with the Word, the strongest defense against the powers of the world. To do this, Bible classes must be staffed with teachers and co-teachers. We should be inundated with men and women who are committed to the spiritual education of children. Unfortunately we have a teacher shortage which means that those already teaching a class are taking on another class to keep from having to combine classes and age groups. We want to avoid combining and also avoid teacher burn-out for those volunteering to serve this way so we ask for you to step up and take an active role in the most important education a child can receive. The rewards are great and the benefits are endless. Deuteronomy 11:18-19 "Fix these words of mine in your hearts and minds...Teach them to your children, talking about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road..." Carol Ruggles
