parents with young children ON SUNDAY MORNINGS
revolutionary parenting

Parents of Young Children Class on Sunday Mornings - On Sunday morning, September 12, our Parents class will begin a new series which may be the most important topic we’ve covered: Faith-Parenting. This will be an 8-9 week series based on George Barna’s book and DVD, Revolutionary Parenting. Large numbers of adolescents fail to develop an active faith or leave it altogether; the causes and the solutions begin much earlier. But many parents feel inadequate or unprepared to make a difference in this realm – we want to help equip you for this vital role. Sundays, 9:30 AM, Room 112. Contact Mark Boerger to register and reserve a workbook (highly recommended, at $10 each).
