The Parenting ministry equips and supports parents in rising up God-honoring and God-fearing children.

About Us

Welcome to the Parenting Ministry page of Beraca Baptist Church. Beraca Baptist Church Parenting ministry equips and supports parents in rising up God-honoring and God-fearing children.

The ministry provides parents with teaching/guidance based on biblical principles and creates a parent network to offer encouragement and help from parents to parents. This ministry serves families with both parents as well as families with single parents. The leaders of the ministry work with other leaders, like the leaders of Single Parent Ministry, Children Ministry, Youth Ministry, Mentoring Ministry, Women, and Men Ministries. We also minister to parents in our community through the Angel Tree Program. We welcome you!

WHERE WE BEGIN

Simply, with a need to help and bring joy to children, as we draw closer to God.” Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it. “~Proverbs 22:6. (NIV) 

We know being a parent is not and easy task.  We serves families with both parents as well as families with single parents. As we partner up with many different ministries at Beraca Baptist Church in discovering new ways to help each other as parents,  we also minister to parents in our community through the Angel Tree Program.
