Statement of Faith
Our Mission
As a ministry of Heritage Baptist Church, the Child Development Center exists to lead people into a life changing relationship with Jesus Christ in Montgomery and beyond. We do that primarily by providing excellent early childhood education that helps preschoolers grow spiritually, intellectually, physically, socially and emotionally. We also partner with their parents as they guide their preschoolers to grow up loving God. Because we are a Christian child development center, we unapologetically teach our children that Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior. The Bible is taught daily in the classrooms. Chapel is every Friday. We will make no exceptions by allowing religious teachings of other faiths, and we will not provide accommodations for children from other faith backgrounds.
Our Goal
- Loving God
- Loving Others
- Showing His Love to the World
The Authority of the Bible
All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness…
2 Timothy 3:16 (NIV)
All Men have Sinned
For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God’s glorious standard.
Romans 3:23 (NLT)
Jesus Died in our Place
Christ died for our sins, just as the Scriptures said. He was buried, and he was raised from the dead on the third day, just as the Scriptures said.
1 Corinthians 15:3b-4 (NLT)
Salvation through Faith
If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.
Romans 10:9-10 (NIV)
Individual and Personal Commitment

John 1:12 (NIV)
Believers Baptism
Therefore we were buried with Him by baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, so we too may walk in a new way of life. For if we have been joined with Him in the likeness of His death, we will certainly also be in the likeness of His resurrection. For we know that our old self was crucified with Him in order that sin’s dominion over the body may be abolished, so that we may no longer be enslaved to sin…
Romans 6:4-6 (HCSB)
The Church
But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for His possession, so that you may proclaim the praises of the One who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.
1 Peter 2:9 (HCSB)
The Great Commission
Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
Matthew 28:19-20 (NIV)
