VBC Children Mission Classes
On Wednesday evenings, Preschoolers and Kindergarteners we have a special class called Mission Friends. The primary objective of Mission Friends is to provide a strong foundation for preschoolers in a Christian and missions lifestyle. Mission Friends provides developmentally appropriate missions learning experiences to help preschoolers move from a self-centered focus to a focus on others, to become aware that not everyone knows about God's love, and to understand ways they can help others know about this good news!
GA (Girls in Action) is a comprehensive missions education program, for girls in grades 1-6, which includes praying for missions, engaging in missions action and witness, learning about missions, developing spiritually toward a missions lifestyle, participating in the work of the church and denomination, and supporting missions. Through participation in GA, girls grow in their knowledge, understanding, and application of the Bible. They also learn from the example of missionaries, believers, and hands-on mission action what it means to actively engage in ministering to others with the compassion of Christ. By hearing about missionaries in many different places, a GA discovers that God’s mission is world wide. By doing missions herself, she learns that she has a responsibility to change the world.
RA (Royal Ambassadors) is a Bible-centered, church-based, Southern Baptist mission education organization for boys in grades 1-6. The RA Motto, "We are Ambassadors for Christ," not only gives the organization its name, but also gives the boys and leaders a lifestyle goal. This Motto is taken from Scripture, specifically 2 Corinthians 5:20. The Scripture passage describes the purpose of Royal Ambassadors. “Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ; certain that God is appealing through us, we plead on Christ's behalf, 'Be reconciled to God.”
