In addition to group support, select students received one on one tutoring to strengthen literacy and language skills.Bible Clubs and DiscipleshipCCM provided weekly Bible clubs for children at our Chamblee site, including a Kindergarten Bible club and Bible clubs for elementary students. These clubs create a consistent space for children to learn Scripture, hear the Gospel, and grow in Christian character.
