Education Department

The Education Department of Glory to Glory Ministries is committed to the vision of the ministry, “. . . to equip (perfect) the saints for the work of ministry. . .” (Ephesians 4:11-16), by fulfilling the mission of the ministry, “go ye therefore and teach (train; make disciples) of all nations. . .” (Matthew 28:19-20).  The purpose of the Education Department is to teach (educate), love, disciple, lead, and evangelize those whom God has entrusted us with.

Children’s Ministry – Teach the word of God, Evangelize the children, Love each one with the love of Jesus Christ, and Lead them so they can lead others.  Our motto is “TELL somebody”.

EDGE – Educate the pre-teens and teens, Disciple them so they can Grow and Evangelize others.

Homework Helpers – Ensure that all students excel academically and make learning gains by providing positive reinforcement and recognition by assisting students of various grade levels and abilities with homework while providing positive reinforcement and recognition for students to excel academically.

It is expected that each member be accountable in attendance, giving, as well as fasting on the 1st Thursday of each month.
