About Our Ministry

What is released-time Bible education?

Faith-based learning, with parental permission.

Ohio Revised Code §3313.6022 provides for students to attend privately operated religious instruction off school grounds during the school day, with written parental consent and other safeguards.

Impact School Ministries serves participating Valley Elementary third- and fourth-grade students through Bible teaching supported by local volunteers. Instruction is privately provided, not taught or funded by the public school. Our local ministry is affiliated with School Ministries Ohio, which equips and supports independent released-time programs.

Our calling

Servants of the God of heaven and earth.

“We are the servants of the God of heaven and earth” — Ezra 5:11 (ESV)

In Ezra, God's people undertook the rebuilding of the temple, a work they understood as obedience to God and one supported by a royal decree (Ezra 5:11–13). Inspired by their example of faithful service, Impact School Ministries seeks to answer God's call to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with participating Valley Elementary students. Ohio's released-time framework provides a lawful opportunity for this voluntary, parent-authorized ministry.
