Summary

    Everyday in America...

  • 8,441 teens become sexually active
  • 2,756 teens get pregnant
  • 248 children are arrested for violent crimes
  • 176 children are arrested for drug abuse
  • 427 children are arrested for alcohol abuse
  • 2,250 students drop out of school
  • 16 youth commit suicide

    School Ministries believes America's Children Need...

  • A Bible teacher who loves the Lord and fosters a warm, safe, and nurturing environment for their personal growth.
  • A safe venue where students can ask deep, challenging, and sensitive questions without fear or censure.
  • Bible classes that prepare them to be responsible adults, good family members, and contributing community citizens.
  • The opportunity to pray and be prayed for so they can receive the love of God they so desperately need.

    As a result the vision of School Ministries is to invite every student K - 12 to join Released Time Bible Education or After School Bible Education Program and receive HOPE. (Released Time Bible Education is a time when students are constitutionally released during the public school day to go off campus for religious Bible Education with parental permission.)

Ministry Statement or Response [ Back to top ]

This organization has not offered MinistryWatch.com with an official statement or response for their profile. This area is meant as a mechanism for the profiled ministry to communicate anything they may choose. It is open ended as to the topic, issues, facts or news to address. It is not negative if there is no official statement as many don’t have anything to add than what is already on the profile. This section is not tied to transparency or to communication in general. Many very open and talkative ministries with us choose not to post an official statement. This section is just an open ended offering to the profiled ministry for anything extra to say as they may choose.
