91ÌÒÉ« is a community of faith as well as a community of learning. Spiritual growth is a critical component of a student’s 91ÌÒÉ« experience—91ÌÒÉ« is a place where students encounter God and grow in their Christian faith.

"In 2 Kings 6:17, the servant of Elijah could only see disaster from his limited perspective but Elijah helped him see from God’s perspective that there is always more going on than meets the eye. God is active is ways we may never fully realize but we can trust."
