School Ministries Mission & Vision

Our Mission

School Ministries partners with communities across America in bringing hope and transformed lives to youth through school-based Bible education.

Our Vision

• Become involved with local churches. While we reach out to children during the school day, we seek to initiate active involvement with the church throughout the lives of the children. We encourage those children who do not belong to a church to find one, and those who may already belong to a church to become enthusiastically involved.
   
• Impact children’s families at home. In addition to preparing the children with a lifelong hunger to know and love God, we encourage students to take what they learn in Released Time programs to their families. By taking their lessons home children who may not come from a strong, Christian home will be able to spread the Good News to those they love.
   
• Create a better learning environment at school. Through Released Time Bible Education, School Ministries improves the quality of public schools. By spreading the Good News we will establish a strong moral center that today’s public schools fail to provide. By emphasizing a moral value system, we can ease disciplinary issues in America’s schools, reduce the threat of violence and vandalism, and improve students’ sense of worth.
   
• Develop into better citizens. By reaching millions of young people as they develop their hearts and minds, we will produce a base of America’s future leaders that look to Jesus Christ for guidance. As youth citizens, children will learn the responsibilities of being an American citizen, be more active in their community, and prepare for a lifetime of service to God and nation. Through these youth citizens, we will be able to expand even further the body of the Christian faith as America faces the uncertain troubles of the future.
