Parents are the most powerful influences on their children's faith growth. Recognizing this, CELC is building a comprehensive ministry to develop parents as disciples of Jesus Christ and equip them to be their children's primary faith teachers and mentors.

A variety of small group Bible studies provide wonderful opportunities for God to speak to parents in prayer and Scripture, nourish and nurture them in their individual faith walks, and equip them to raise children who know, love and serve the Lord. For more information about small groups, please contact Florence Heacock at 301-652-5160, email her at flohea@heartmindsoul.com or click here.
Parenting is tough! Recognizing this, CELC's Family Ministry has designed these sessions to equip you to disciple your children. These sessions are held quarterly on a Saturday morning, and brunch is provided. If you missed one, please click on the link below to see the handouts that were distributed to parents. We hope you can join us at our next parent equipping brunch! For more information, please contact the church at 301-652-5160 or email families@heartmindsoul.com.
