To encourage Parents to pray together for their children, as well as to share valuable biblical resources that with the help of the Holy Spirit will equip and help us in the process of raising them for God’s glory
”Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is old he will not depart from it.“Proverbs 22:6 NKJV
Our mission is to reach out to families reaffirming them
that they are not alone, that God is for them and so are we. To help them succeed in their parenting journey by praying with them, sharing Biblical resources, referring counseling when needed, helping them to find a Bible believing church if they are not part of one.
To see families walking in victory with the Lord in a community of believers and for parents to be equipped to teach and stand on Christ’s values for their families.
We would love to share our vision with interested churches that would like to adapt our model.
Our community is represented by families of diverse nationalities throughout the city. One thing that we have in common is that we love Jesus!
We have parents in different stages, some celebrating victories, others facing challenges. But here at UPFC
are ready to help them to navigate the season that they are in.
I am christian mother, a grandmother, and a Bible teacher that loves the Lord and families. While raising our children in the Christian faith, we experienced a tough parenting situation that brought us to be on our knees more than ever before. My desire and need for prayer increased. That's when the Lord put in my heart to gather a group of loving, dedicated mothers to unite our prayers and to equip ourselves to raise godly children that will stand in the faith and walk with Jesus Christ. I thank God for Dr. Maggie Rodriguez' encouragement to obey the vision that God put in my heart to do for His glory.
In May of 2013, ‘UPFC” United Parents for Christ was established, and to today it has been a true joy to serve the Lord by helping families at no cost to them. We have built a multicultural community of christian parents that love the Lord and stand in prayer on behalf of our children, we also share resources that equip us to help our children to find God’s purpose for their lives, and to coach them to live a life that glorifies the Lord.
We are no way near nor pretend to be a perfect family, we are a work in progress like many of you, trusting the Lord and doing our best as parents. We know that our children will face numerous challenges while living in a world filled with sin and compromise.There are unavoidable consequences our children will face when we as parents neglect our responsibility of teaching God’s word, instilling His values without compromise and daily praying for our children. They need our help in order to stand in a culture and society that wants very little to do with God.
”“And these words which I command you today shall be in your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up. You shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates.“
Deuteronomy 6:6-9 NKJV
