Estrella Baptist Association

More than an Association. . . a Partnership

....But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid; for see-I am bringing you good news of great joy for all the people-for unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ, the Lord!" - Luke 2:10-11

WHY PREVENTING & RESPONDING TO SEX ABUSE IS ESSENTIAL FOR THE CHURCH?

We have a clear gospel call to care well for children, teenagers, & vulnerable adults. We must not turn a blind eye or deaf ear since it may be difficult or hard. We must respond!

DID YOU KNOW?
1 in 4 girls & 1 in 6 boys are sexually abused before they turn 18. (D2L)

Only 16% of child victims ever tell about their abuse. (NCAC)

A male abuser who molests boys has an average of 150 victims. A male abuser who molests girls has an average of 52 victims. (Emory University)

WHAT CAN MY CHURCH DO?
Every Pastor & church can learn how to Train, Screen, Protect, Report, and Care.

Gateway Seminary and MinistrySafe are working together to prevent children from sexual abuse.

MinistrySafe has a 5-part safety system which provides overlapping layers of protection: Awareness Training, Skillful Screening Process, Policy and Procedures, Background Checks, Monitoring and Oversight.
