Child Care


SmokeRise Baptist Child Care

Train up a child in the way he should go,

even when he is old he will not depart from it.

Proverbs 22:6

Our Mission Statement

Our mission is to:

Provide a home-like environment of Christian nature

Love each child and family

To introduce families and children to our Lord Jesus Christ

Our Statement of Faith

We believe children are a gift from God, a precious treasure and God’s miraculous creation. Our hope is that every child will grow to have a healthy view of God as their loving Father. Our goal is to demonstrate the love of Jesus Christ so that each child will come to believe in Him as their Lord and Savior and receive eternal life.

Outside of our personal relationship with Jesus Christ, we believe the family is the most stabilizing factor in an individual’s development and growth. Our goal is to minister to the entire family.
