Supporting Your Son During National Service

National service is a significant milestone for many young individuals, signifying their commitment to serving their country and fostering personal growth. As a parent, your role becomes crucial in providing support, encouragement, and understanding during this period. This workshop aims to offer guidance on how to effectively support your son throughout his national service journey.

Parents and sons will learn about how NS and BMT is structured, how they can prepare themselves. They will also hear about how the safety and well being of the soldiers are supported.

Importantly, they will hear how NS fits into God’s mission for us as Christians and how we can be salt and light. They will be able to also ask questions about any aspect of NS.
