FAITH, Inc. and Clayton Baptist Church present
Sunday, March 4 | 12:20-3:00pm
As a provider of programming and services for children and youth, Clayton Baptist Church can play a critical role in protecting the lives of children and youth. We can help put an end to child sexual abuse by implementing a comprehensive child protection program and training your staff, childcare workers, and adult volunteers.
Ask any congregation that has experienced a case of sexual abuse and they will tell you that knowing what they know now, there is NO amount of time that would have been too great to spend on prevention and educating their members.
Clayton Baptist Church has the opportunity to set a new standard within our community. Who better than Clayton Baptist Church to make the commitment to be stewards of the precious children in our care. We can be a leader to our community as well as a leader among other churches by setting a higher standard and showing that we will do whatever it takes to keep children safe when they are with us.
