The Southern Diocese is firmly committed to the advanced preparation of its Sunday School servants, beginner and experienced. It is with this commitment, that the Servants’ Program curriculum has been expanded. The newly developed curriculum set forth in this catalog includes religious education such as Holy Bible study, church dogma, rituals, church history, as well as spiritual studies. A servant should be capable of serving at various different levels; therefore it is essential that a servant have advanced religious preparation.

The mission of the Servants’ Preparation Program is to provide the participants with a solid Orthodox Christian education, which enables them to grow in faith, to search for knowledge and truth, and continue building the Kingdom of God on earth. By active involvement in the learning process, individuals are prepared to "serve the Lord with gladness" (Psalm 100:2) and for lives of Christian leadership. They are also prepared to pass their love to God and the right Christian teachings to the new generations.
