God’s word proclaims, “Children are a gift from the Lord” (Psalm 127:3)
At Potomac Baptist Church, we wholeheartedly agree with this proclamation, and we have a deep conviction for passing along the truth of God’s word to the next generation. Early childhood is a crucial time of life to pour into our children the foundations upon which they will stand. We endeavor to come alongside each family to support their efforts to bring up children who know and love their Heavenly Father. We encourage family worship, and we also offer nursery, Sunday School and Connect Kids..
In our ministry opportunities to our children, we are guided by the following Scriptures about the importance of educating our children in the Scriptures in order for them to grow in faith and love for God:
You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise.
But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have firmly believed, knowing from whom you learned it and how from childhood you have been acquainted with the sacred writings, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.
