The Children… Jesus said, “Suffer ye the little children to come unto me…”
No matter where we go and what we do, God continually reveal the place of children in His heart. We at Damascus Educational Center of Scholars recognize what God is mandating. The Bible says, “Train up a child while he is young and when he is old he will not depart from it.” We can never over emphasize such importance. It is because of these that the staff sees to it that what we educate is not only the mind but the heart as well. Dr. Jose Rizal, our national hero once said that the children are the hope of this nation. To that we disagree. So many children today are catalyst of decadence. So, we emphasize that the children who are guided and molded in the Scripture are the future and hope of any nation. May we all find these revelations true and worth our time and efforts. |
WHAT ARE WE DOING?Every Monday we would normally have a chapel hour. Through this we aim to guide children in understanding the five basic truths that God’s Word is sharing. 1. That we are all created by God. 2. Humanity fell into sin. 3. God paved a way for our salvation through the Lord Jesus Christ. 4. That God has now forgiven and accepted us. 5. We will all give account before God in the future. On a daily basis the subject “Bible” is given a thirty- minute period to educate the children of the saving power of our Lord Jesus Christ. We also make sure that bible truths are integrated in every subject. We follow a biblical way of discipline. Keeping them aware of Christ’s presence all the time. Activities, such as P.T.C. (Parent Teacher Conference), foundation week, concerts, camping, academic programs are all opportunities to share God’s Word. We make every event a channel for children and parents to understand the message of Christ. Every morning before the flag raising, we conduct a short devotion among the teachers and students. Enabling seminars are also attended by all our school personnel most especially the ACSI Convention at Grace Christian Highschool. HOW YOU CAN HELPIf you feel God is speaking to you, you can… I.
