At Russellville First we value everyone who participates in the ministries of our congregation. We give special attention to the need to protect children, youth, and vulnerable adults. For this reason, we are a Safe Sanctuary congregation This means that we have guidelines governing the selection and supervision of those who work with the most vulnerable members of our community; children, youth under age 18 and adults who are unable to speak or advocate for themselves.
Children
At Russellville First, we believe an essential part of ministry is to equip the children in our care through spiritual nurturing and Biblical knowledge so that they experience a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. As this relationship with Christ grows, their understanding of their faith will also grow and they are able to freely share the love of Jesus Christ with others.
