IMPACTING LIVES

THE IMPORTANCE OF CHRISTIAN FRIENDSHIPS FOR YOUR KIDS, AND HOW PARENTS CAN HELP With the back-to-school season getting underway, parents have been working diligently to ensure their child has everything they need to get back to class. Unfortunately, in the busy scheme of things one essential element of our children’s lives can get overlooked: friendships. It is not just math and writing that our kids learn at school.
