Dear Parents, Welcome! I am so excited for you and your family to be a part of an rewarding and fun adventure with Victory s children ministry. If you are looking for a church that is Jesuscentered, biblically-based, doctrinally-driven, missions-minded, and discipleshipfocused then look no further. At Victory, we are as serious about instilling a passion for God in the younger generation as we are for our adults. We want to help your children grow up in the Lord and partner with you as you train your children to know and love Christ. If there is any way that we can be of service to you, please to do not hesitate to ask. We are excited to get to know your family and eager for you to know us. God is Good! Kyle Clifton Children s Pastor Victory Baptist Church Purpose of Victory s Preschool Ministry It is never too early to introduce preschoolers to the love of God. Our desire is to provide a safe, secure, clean and Christian environment where the foundational building blocks of faith can support the primary spiritual teaching of the home. Our desire is also to be an encouragement and resource to parents who strive to be living examples of Deuteronomy 6:4-9. Purpose of Victory s Children Ministry Victory Children s Ministry strives to provide spiritual direction for children by leading them to Treasure Christ, Grow Together, Serve One Another, and Live On Mission. Our job is to help you provide direction for your children s journeys so they will know the way, the truth, and the life. We lead children to treasure Christ by teaching them: How to have a personal relationship with Christ How to worship Christ What the Bible says & how to memorize key verses How to apply God s Word to their life We grow together by providing: Sunday Morning Classes Children s Church Wednesday Evening Classes Family Field Trips / Activities at Victory Our Victory teachers Our teachers are volunteers who are caring, loving, and positive role models who enjoy seeing your child discover that church is a good place to grow and learn. 2
