We need to raise our children well. [We need to raise our children to be good people.]
We need to bring up our children well.
There are other forms which are awkward.
We need to have raised our children well.
We need to have brought up our children well.
In casual speech, "need to," "have to," "should," and "must" are very similar.

We needed to fix the car. [past]

Gosh! Yes, I missed it. I know it, but I didn't pat attention. We need to bring up... definitely

Hi! Two things - You need to use present tense (bring) and if you want, specifically, to use the word 'worthy' you need to have a noun to attach it to (since worthy is an adjective).
So you could say 'We need to bring up our children in a worthy way' but it's a very awkward sentence. The way I would express this thought is: 'We need to bring our children up well.'
