The goal of the program is to develop faith in Jesus Christ and to help these children know that each and everyone of them is important. Jesus loves 'hem and has a special purpose for 'heir life.

The children learn the importance of obedience and selfcontrol. It is certain that early training of this kind will prepare our children to cope with life’s situations in the future. The response to Release Time has been very good. More than 100 students have enrolled in past sessions. The children actively participate in different activities such as Bible drills, memory verses. prayer requests, song and praise and thanksgiving.
