Safeguards for Kids Tour
1 in 3 girls and 1 in 7 boys will be sexually abused before the age of 18. What can Christians do to change these disturbing facts? Julie Lowe argues that Christians must lead the way in prevention and response measures to keep kids safe and to respond with the hope of the gospel. Parents, caregivers, and ministry leaders, please plan to attend this vitally important class on Saturday, March 1 from 9 am - 12 pm at Faith Christian Academy in Quakertown.
