Our support group has chosen to be a
“restricted membership” group. This simply means that all members share the same
basic beliefs concerning Jesus Christ. We do not consider ourselves to be a
“clique” nor do we feel that we are better than anyone else. However, since we
do believe that the purpose of the support group is to develop close
relationships both for our children and ourselves, we do not consider the
support group to be a ministry of evangelical outreach.
The following items are what we consider to
be basic to a relationship with Jesus Christ. Please read these and the
Scripture references cited. If you have any questions, please talk to the
Heritage Christian School Leader or a member of the Advisory Board.
