Parenting is the most foundational and influential aspect to the Montgomery County Church Youth & Family Ministry. No one has more influence on our future then parents. In 2 Timothy 3:15 we learn that Timothy had been taught the scriptures from infancy and wow what a powerful godly man Timothy was. Over and over again we see the influence of parents in the bible and how the way they lived their lives loving God lead the way for the children to live righteousness lives in the name of the Lord. Hannah's dedication of Samuel to God (1 Samuel 1:21-28) paved the way for him to become a great prophet. Scripture is very clear that it is the parents who have the overall responsibility for their children to be faithful to the Lord, leading to them live lives as Christians. Because of this the Montgomery County Church strives in Educating parents to Enrich families.
