After School Program
History
Push The Rock started out running one after school program in the Allentown, Pennsylvania school district in 2011 in Allentown. Our after school meet the physical, educational and spiritual needs of students. Our programs consist of an hour and fifteen minutes of teaching the basics of different sports and playing recreational games in a distinctly Christian environment. Each program has a 10-15 minute chapel. This year we are taking it back to the basics…Who is God? What is sin? Who is Jesus? Who is the Holy Spirit? Why is this important to me? Ultimately introducing them to Jesus and giving them an opportunity to receive Jesus as their Savior. School surveys have shown increase in school attendance and increase in good behavior from what is being taught at the program. In the near future, we hope to increase the number of days in each school and expand to more schools throughout the Lehigh Valley impacting the students for Jesus, one life at a time.
Present
The doors are swinging wide open for Push The Rock After School Programs to greatly expand. In the 2019-2020 school year, we are running 7 after school programs for 8 schools. The students in our program look forward to the day Push The Rock comes. Push The Rock is not only providing sports instruction, we are providing positive role models the students can look up to. Push The Rock is teaching kids team work, building self-esteem, encouraging them to be the best they can be and more importantly, we are loving on them with the love of God. Lives are being changed!

Future
We believe that we are to Embrace God’s Call and take these programs to 12 cities across the United States and join the thousands of other kids in Allentown, PA and around the world who are already involved. The only limit to what we can do is having the finances to answer the call. We believe we are suppose to help write a new chapter in the lives and stories of many of these kids and their families.
