Dear ALFWC community,We are so excited about the potential and relevancy of this ministry. Our children arethe most prized possession we’ve been entrusted to steward. The nature and scope of their education is of utmost importance. So we say: To the Many Beautiful Children of AbundantAs your pastors, we love you and believe you can excel far beyond the world’sexpectations. We know that you have greatness inside of you and long to see youdiscover your gifts and fulfill your dreams. In fact, you are a present snapshot of thefuture and we want nothing more than for you to succeed. Throughout the school year, please remember we are in your corner and cheering you on.To the ParentsHaving been parents of school-aged children, we understand your desire for your children to receive the best education the state, private or charter school system can provide. We understand your longing for them to surpass you in their intellectual,emotional, social and spiritual development. And yes, we understand the tremendouschallenges you face in motivating them to make wise choices, avoid the manytrappings of society and the relentless pull of peer pressure. Thus, we are honored tostand with you and fight for the edification of our children.We encourage you to impart the Word of God to your children. The Word is akin toseed and the human soul to dry ground. Be the first, each day, to sow into your children, since it is inevitable that they’ll be exposed to various seed sowers throughoutthe school day. In our postmodern, technologically-savvy, and unfortunatelyincreasingly secular culture, it is crucial that our children have a solid foundation, amoral center through which they interpret and evaluate their education.To the Entire Church BodyIt is so crucial that our children know they are loved. Love is a powerful force and has been repeatedly proven to be a necessary launching pad for learning. When childrenknow they are loved, they tend to learn more and at quicker intervals, unhampered bylow self-esteem, hopelessness, apathy, resentment, bitterness, feelings of abandonment,and the many other ills associated with being unloved. Let us band together to fortifyour children, provide them with quality tutoring and mentoring, and cultivate anenvironment that inspires them to bravely meet, tackle and triumph over challenges.In closing, we encourage every stakeholder (parents, teachers, and church family) toconsider the following question posed by Psalm 127:3 (Message version), “
Don't yousee that children are God's best gift? The fruit of the womb his generous legacy?”
Let us therefore remain faithful in properly stewarding the minds and hearts of our

Help is Here!
By Elder Diane Tucker The school year is starting! School books, teachers, PTO, counselors, rule changes,more budget cuts and the rest. How does one survive? Now there is an answer! TheGod Ordained Excellence in Education Ministry is here for you. This ministry is your compass; to navigate your way through the school year and beyond. Maybe your childhas just entered the school system for the first time. How proud you are as a parent.Or, this may be your last child in his or her last year in school. School is the placewhere a child will learn to grow in the areas that matter most. However, withspending cuts and teacher shortages, is it possible to get the education that your child is promised and deserves? How will you know? Consult with the G.O.E.E. Ministry.Check the subjects the schools are teaching. Are they what you desire your child (ren)should learn? In the past we learned “reading, writing and arithmetic”. – Now almostanything goes; including teaching a child moral values which contradict what the parents values are.Let’s be careful about our children in the school system. Let’s get more involved andfind out what is being taught; that the schools are teaching what is important to thegrowth of the children in school. Call or contact the G.O.E.E. Ministry for all your school needs. I do believe this ministry has the help to direct you and your child (ren)through a successful school year.
