Because we believe the Bible teaches that all humans are created in the image of God (Genesis 1: 27), we hold that all human life is sacred and of inestimable worth in all its dimensions, including pre-born babies, babies, the aged, the physically or mentally challenged, and every other stage or condition from conception through natural death. We are therefore called to defend, protect, and value all human life (Ps 139). Helpers will guide students using the principles taught by Jesus Christ to treat others in the same way that you want to be treated (Luke 6:31, Matthew 7:12), and to love others in the same way that you love yourself (Matthew 12:31). Parent Helpers are servants and will strive to pass on the Biblical principle of serving to the students (Mark 9:35, 10:44, and I Corinthians 9:19).
