WHAT TO EXPECT FROM HSM/MSM
- Christian Atmosphere – We will work hard to provide a wholesome environment that fosters spiritual growth and fellowship through the nurturing of Christian friendships.
- Leaders – We will provide opportunities for quality Christian relationships with adults outside the child’s family to provide examples of servant living.
- Transportation – When special events require transportation, we will strive toward safe, efficient, and dependable travel by using qualified drivers with good driving records. Safety is always a top priority.
- Supervision – We will take the responsibility for your child very seriously when they are in our care (for instance, in classes, on one of our activities, etc).
- However, we will not be monitoring your child when he/she is not under our responsibility (for instance, during worship services, before and after classes, in the church parking lot, etc.)
- Safety – Provisions are made to satisfy basic first aid needs. On most group activities such as retreats, we try to have a nurse, or someone trained in first aid, present.
- Responsibility – We ask you to remember that parents bear the primary responsibility for spiritual growth of their child. There is little we can do to replace the training of a godly parent.
- Prayer – We ask you to continually hold up this ministry in prayer, that all we do will be blessed by Him, and that our kids will be trained and matured into servant leaders.
