Tenth’s Bible School for children and youth is a vital part of our ministry to the next generation. Bible School is held Sundays at 9 AM (with limited offerings at 11 AM) and 6:30 PM, providing something for every young person from the ages of 2 months to 18 years. Classes are divided by age or grade and are taught by competent and dedicated members from our congregation.
Children’s Bible School focuses on teaching children the truth of God’s Word to prepare them for ministry and personal witness in future years. In the early years lessons begin with an overview of both the Old and New Testaments, followed by more detailed stories, theology, and practical living applications in the later years. Lessons are accompanied by a robust memory work program including both scripture and catechism. For older students, we conduct an essay contest each year that gives them an opportunity to debate and explain a point of doctrine from the Westminster Confession of Faith.
Tenth’s Memory Work Program has been a feature of our Children’s Sunday School for more than 60 years. We understand that Bible memorization is a tool for making God’s word known to our covenant children. We hope and pray it helps them, “to grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ” (2 Peter 3:18).
Because it is much easier to absorb and retain the verses in youth than in later years, our Memory Work Program applies several basic principles:
“So it was that, when God destroyed the cities of the valley, God remembered Abraham and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow when he overthrew the cities in which Lot had lived” (Genesis 19:29).
God’s mercy and saving grace continue to move, even in places where evil seems to reign supreme and the gospel appears absent. The God who remembers the intercession of one righteous person (Abraham) and saves a family is the same God who, through Christ, has saved us when we were lost, rebellious, and without hope. God’s people continue to bear faithful witness to the gospel in dark places.
Please join us this fall for the 2025 Global Outreach Conference. We will have the opportunity to gather with mission partners who are living out the Great Commission in the hardest places and invite you to join us as we reflect and wrestle together.
How do they obey Christ’s command in their unique contexts?
How are we called to be steadfast and faithful in our own mission fields—our children, families, friends, and in our workplaces?
How do we remember and respond to Christ’s command today?
“Therefore, my beloved brothers and sisters, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain” (1 Corinthians 15:58).
May this conference be a time of reflecting, of being challenged, and of renewing our obedience—because of him, because of Christ.
Please contact Joe Park directly if you will be attending the Plenary Sessions at 2pm before the GO Conference Banquet.

This four-year course equips college students to view all of life through the lens of God’s Word. By God’s wisdom revealed in Scripture, students learn to see true reality (Psalm 36:9). You will gain a comprehensive overview of the Old and New Testaments, Christian ethics, church history, theology, and more, understanding that all Scripture is authoritative and profitable for every human endeavor (2 Timothy 3:16–17). The goal is to grow in the mind of Christ and live in His maturity in every sphere of life (Colossians 1:28).
Tenth will be having a service day performing several projects around the church, including carpentry, gardening, painting, cleaning, and more. We will provide all of the tools and supplies. Volunteers are encouraged to wear clothes that can get dirty and close-toed shoes.

If you are the parent of a teen or adult child who is walking in rebellion against the Lord, you might feel alone—perhaps even hopeless. Finding other believers to pray with you about your child’s situation can be intimidating.
Tenth is starting a group for parents of “prodigal” children. The purpose of the group isn’t to find advice or answers. The purpose is to create a safe space for parents to be known in their sorrow and fear and to pray together for the Lord to have mercy on their children, and to turn them back to himself in repentance.
