Under Pennsylvania state law public school students are allowed to be released from school for one hour per week (up to 36 hours a year) for religious instruction. CBM has provided this instruction in SWPA since 1970. The work began in Greene county under the direction of Reba Miller and has grown and expanded to Fayette and Butler counties. We now ministers to over 850 students each week.
Our classes range from 1st - 12th grade and are held during school hours, but off of school property. More than half of our students DO NOT attend church, so Released time is their ONLY source of Biblical instruction. CBM missionaries and many Christian volunteers make this outreach possible. We are a non-denominational, non-profit organization. Transportation and material costs are paid for by the loving contributions of those who desire to see boys and girls know Jesus better. A link is available on our contact page if you'd like to invest in this ministry.
