As we approach Grace Christian Academy's 50th year, we are reminded of the biblical concept of the Year of Jubilee, where all land ultimately belonged to God. Just as the land was to be rested and debts are forgiven, we are reminded that our school's success and achievements are ultimately owed to God's grace and provision. Looking back on the past 50 years of ministry, we see God's hand in every aspect of our school's growth and development. As we look forward to another 50 years, remember that everything we do, our accomplishments, and the students we educate belong to God. May we refocus our efforts to continue to honor God and serve His purposes as we press forward with renewed energy and vision for the future.

Forgiveness: A Testament to God's Unending Grace
Ephesians 4:32 (ESV) |
Forgiveness is a central theme in the Year of Jubilee and throughout the Bible. At Grace Christian Academy, we have witnessed the power of forgiveness within our school community. Over the past 50 years, there have been countless instances of students, teachers, and staff members extending grace and forgiveness to one another, reflecting God's unending love and mercy. These acts of forgiveness have fostered a sense of unity, allowing us to grow stronger in faith and service to our Lord. May we produce students who are agents of forgiveness to a world in need.

Freedom: Embracing True Freedom in God
|
The Year of Jubilee highlights the importance of freedom, and at Grace Christian Academy, we recognize that true freedom is found in God alone. Over the past 50 years, we have been blessed with the opportunity to operate a Christian school in a nation that values freedom. However, our pursuit and celebration of freedom go beyond our rights as citizens. We seek to cultivate an environment where students, teachers, and staff can experience the liberating power of a relationship with Christ.
As a school, we are dedicated to nurturing spiritual growth and understanding, helping our community members embrace the freedom that comes from knowing and following God's will. This freedom allows us to live purposeful lives, unburdened by the weight of sin and empowered by God's love and grace. Throughout our history, Grace Christian Academy has been a testament to God's faithfulness in providing the freedom to grow and thrive as a Christ-centered institution. As we celebrate our 50th anniversary, we reaffirm our commitment to pursuing and celebrating the true freedom found in God, impacting the lives of our students and staff for generations to come. |
