Luther said, “For it is the duty of father and mother—nay, for this very purpose they were made father and mother—to teach children and lead them to God, not according to their own notion and their own religious persuasion, but according to the command of God.” But, long before this, God commanded, “Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.”

If we fulfill our objective, then Redeemer School will be a “mission in motion”.
