Dear Parents:

We welcome you to our Weekday Ministry program at First Baptist Church, Lenoir City. Our program is designed to provide a caring, loving environment for your child. One that helps your child feel accepted. Research has established how important the first five years of a child's life are and that morals and values are learned right along with other developmental tasks. Therefore, it is crucial that we be equally concerned about the spiritual development of our children. We also quality school age care for children Kindergarten through 6th grade. We offer a safe environment, low child adult ratios, a nice facility, fun activities, time for homework, and a spiritual base for your child's growth. Our commitment to excellence is proven by our "3 Star" standing for school age care.

The Bible is very clear in its instruction to us to teach our children about God's love, God's care and God's character. The Book of Proverbs gives us clear direction to, "Train up a child in the way he should go and he will not depart from it ( Proverbs 22:6)." A child is a person made in the image of God and God has a plan for that child's life. Our accountability as parents and significant others in the lives of our children is to be good models and understand the uniqueness of the child; to teach our children to have a sense of trust, self-control, guidance, security, self-respect, acceptance, and love.
Our role as care-givers/teachers is to be a support to you, work with you, and be skilled in teaching methods that will help your child become all God has created him/her to be.

Pray for us as we will pray for you- -together, with God's help we will know we have been faithful to our most precious gift from God-our children.
