Lighthouse Christian Academy just celebrated its 11th year as
a private, church funded Christian school. This year our grades were 3rd-12th.
Each morning school starts with the children having special prayer and
devotion time. Many testimonies of answered prayer have come from the
students prayer time! The children have a testimony in the community and
abroad of being sincere prayer warriors who pray with expectation!
Morning devotions were a little different this year than in the past-
once a week one of the children would stand up and give a heartfelt
devotion based on their experiences with the Lord and what the Lord was
doing in their life. No matter what the students age - all students were
included and rotated mornings of being the one to deliver the devotion
and to encourage each other in the Lord.
Other activities this year included a dedication to world missions
(namely Africa) and supporting the troops in Afghanistan and Iraq. The
children sent several care packages to the troops containing Christian
literature, deodorant, baby wipes, lip balm, New Testaments, gum and
other essentials. The children enjoyed hearing back from the troops and
being able to communicate with our soldiers on the front lines on the
war against terror. On June 5th Lighthouse Christian Academy had their
11th End of The Year awards ceremony and celebrated the graduation of
one of our students, Randi Marie. The award ceremony also included
honoring the homeschoolers in our church with a promotional
certification. Lighthouse Christian Academy supports our church members
decisions to keep their children separate from the public schools
not only by providing a low cost private school option but also by
encouraging and supporting the families in our church who feel the Lord
directing them to educate their children at home.
Randi Marie graduated with high honors. She is currently our Little
Keepers At Home teacher and hopes to advance her culinary skills with a
degree this fall.
