FPC Chimes (First Presbyterian Church of Atlanta)

The goal of the Children's Education Program is to develop our children's personal knowledge and love of our Lord Jesus Christ through prayer, praise, fellowship, service, music and education; to encourage them to be guided by God's love and teachings in their everyday lives; to lead them to seek God's will for their lives, to minister to others in Christ's name and to bind them to the community of faith.

Forming a Faithful Family

Becoming new parents can be one of the most exciting...and frightening times in the life of a couple. The love that you feel for your new baby is indescribable and the responsiblity you feel may be overwhelming. It is encouraging to remember that this little one is a gift from God and He is there to give you the necessary strength, courage and wisdom to raise your child faithfully. As parents, you are the primary Christian educators for your children. The Church is here as an additional resource, guide and support for you and your children as you grow in your faith together.

Please read our Baby Makes Three brochure below for more helpful information.
