I believe that (Released Time) is the greatest mission that is taking place in our community—reaching out to youths at an impressionable age and giving them a firm foundation for life.  I believe that training young people to live Christian lives will pay huge dividends for our state and nation in the future.  There is no better investment of our time and energy.
