First Baptist Church increases Community Service by working with LifeWise Academy!

LifeWise Academy is Bible education for public school students grades 3-5 during school hours.  Being complementary to existing before and after-school programs, the primary distinctive feature of LifeWise is that it operates during the school day, thereby engaging the students who are most unlikely to attend before and after-school programs due to transportation, extracurricular and other issues. Each LifeWise lesson reviews a Bible passage as well as a “Living LifeWise” character trait. Powered by The Gospel Project, the LifeWise curriculum takes students through the entire Bible over five years with a 3-fold focus: Head, Heart, and Hands. LifeWise Academy comes alongside administrators and teachers as a supportive ally in their mission to serve students, schools and communities. Studies and surveys show that LifeWise programs improve student attendance and behavior. Churches benefit by expanding community service opportunities and connecting with students, families, other churches and local schools. For more information, go to lifewise.org
