Being Involved as a volunteer for the BLANK BLANK Released Time Program has given me the opportunity to connect more with God as I support his teachings to kids in my community. " --Volunteer Lady
Get Involved
Released Time programs thrive through concentrated prayer and commitment of dedicated leaders and volunteers, sustained by deep and wide community support from churches, organizations and people of faith.
To support our statewide effort: pray on your own or with a dedicated prayer group, spread the word about Released Time, give of your time and money.
PRAYER
Gather a team committed to pray regularly for Released Time at all levels: local, state, national. Pray for public school teachers, administrators and students, and especially for Released Time Bible boys and girls, young men and women...
Most have no church home; many have never set foot in church. How else will they hear about Jesus, who brings life abundant and eternal?
CHURCH INVOLVEMENT
RTBE programs give churches the opportunity to "go and make disciples" among the next generation. For many kids, RT Bible classes may be their only chance to experience the hospitality and loving care of God's people. How can your church get involved, statewide or within your community?
