A Word from our Honorary Chair

"I believe Faith Christian is in a position to continue growth at a reasonable rate. We are very fortunate to have such a school in this community. To have a quality education facility that exists in a Christian environment is what I want for my grandchildren and the community at large. My experience with the faculty and administration has been outstanding. I look forward to a long and pleasant relationship with this school."

A Message from our Capital Campaign Chair, Tim Lilley

Dear Faith Family /Friends of Faith,

      To God be the Glory!  Great things He has truly done for Faith Christian School , having raised over $5.6 million dollars  since the inception of the capital campaign for our own building. How the Lord does provide!  So many people have been a part of this, with many giving, giving, & giving over the years with their children graduating before they could even reap the harvest of a brand new school - I know you agree with me when I say "Blessed are these folks!".

     However, with all of this said the Capital Campaign Committee needs your continued support until all of us working as a team are able to pay off Capital debt that will likely be approximately $2.9 million when the building is completely finished and ready for occupancy.  Taking on this task as a family, as a united force, in a timely manner is an important work for the sake of continued fiscal stability to our kids' school. Please keep praying & providing and I know God will continue to reward our faithfulness and our works.

 

                                                                                                               Sincerely,

                                      
                                                                                                                Tim Lilley

                                                                                                                Capital Campaign Chairman

Dear Friends of Faith Christian School,

As I walk the halls of our school, I am struck by how far we have traveled over the past decade.  We have experienced record enrollment, and, for the first time in our history, we are in our very own facility.  The students and teachers are vibrant testimonies of the transforming power of the gospel as they seek to know truthin an ever-changing culture. 

At Faith Christian School, we are in the business of educating tomorrow’s leaders.  We desire to be more than a college-preparatory school that trains students solely for the academic demands at the next level.  We aim to direct students to develop minds that will yearn for the truth, to seek knowledge and expansion of both mind and heart, and to love learning, not for its own sake, but for God’s sake.

 We are still in the midst of our Capital Campaign, which raises money for our new school building.  Yes, we are in the building, but we still have a loan of $2.7 million to repay, and there are many other “touches” such as bleachers for the gymnasium, outfitting our kitchen, purchasing curtains, lighting and sound equipment for the auditorium, and other items still unfinished that can only be purchased after addressing the remaining debt.

As we continue to raise additional funds to pay off the loan I would like to thank the many families that have contributed to our Capital Campaign. Although we still have some heavy lifting to do, we have come a long way and God has truly blessed Faith Christian School.   

It is truly a privilege and honor to serve as Headmaster of Faith Christian School. Thank you for your support of the school.

Please prayerfully consider how you and your family can best serve the Capital Campaign.

 In Christ,

Samuel P. Cox

Head of School



Classical Christian Education is the cultivation of wisdom and virtue by nourishing the soul on truth, goodness, and beauty by means of the Liberal Arts so that, in Christ, the student is better able to know and enjoy God."Andrew Kern, CiRCE Institute .

"Faith Christian School has an atmosphere in which the teachers have a passion to teach, and the students, recognizing that supportiveness, are inspired by them to learn.  There is also an indescribable freedom to express oneself without fear because of the strong Christian influences that surround and encourage the students.  The most important aspect that separates Faith Christian from other schools is that it trains and guides us to look at issues from many perspectives, but through an overall Christian worldview so that through trials we can evaluate and consider other ideas but not sway in our personal faith and development."
