Message from the
Board of Directors
To
be like Jesus we need to learn of
Him, observe Him, and learn of His
ways. We understand without Jesus
and the power of the Holy Spirit, we
can do nothing that will make a
difference eternally. But to be
different it takes courage,
discipline, and strength. Heritage
Christian Academy strives to instill
these attributes into our students.
Not only do we call ourselves a
Christian School, we call on God to
help us be one. “Children are gifts
from God” and parents are the
keepers of those gifts. Building
strong lives depends on the family
first and foremost. The family is
where the child learns the earliest
and most important lessons. The
family is where a child’s morals are
formed and where attitudes are
developed that will go with them to
school and into life. The school
will help to build the moral
framework, but without a solid
foundation built by the family, the
building is more difficult. We
encourage parents to begin early to
instill Christ-like character into
the gifts God has given them. They
are only children for a short time,
we need to use our time with them
wisely. We are promised that if we
“Train a child in the way he should
go, when he is old he will not turn
from it.” Proverbs 22:6
The mission of Heritage Christian
Academy is “To provide academic
excellence based on Biblical
principles, while enhancing the
Christ-centered family and
strengthening the local churches. We
are committed to equip each student
intellectually, socially, physically
and spiritually, and to educate
caring, contributing members of the
body of Christ and of society.”
Everyone has a part, but once again
the family is the most important and
influential. The challenge then is
for everyone concerned with the
child to do “his/her utmost for His
highest.”
Let us all work together to build
morals, strength of character, and
Christ-like attitudes in our
children. If we want our children to
live strong, moral, Christian lives
then we must set the example. Let us
love one another just as Christ
loves us. Let us not grow weary in
well doing, but let us be a united
team whose goal is to raise these
children in the admonition of the
Lord.
May God bless us and you with His
richest blessings as we work
together to educate these precious
gifts God has given into our
keeping. We, as a board pray
continuously for God to take control
and guide our steps.
