About Us:

Moffett Road Christian School is a ministry of Moffett Road Assembly of God in Mobile, AL.

Moffett Road Christian School is a ministry in service and support of Christian parents who have been called of God to educate their children at home. MRCS is dedicated to helping parents observe the Biblical commands of the following scriptures:

Deuteronomy 6:4-9 Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates.

Proverbs 22:6 Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not run from it.
