"For our family, VCA has been a shelter for our daughter. After teaching in the progressive educational system, we knew we needed to provide a place that would teach her Godly truth, beauty and goodness every day, in all things. A place to protect her from the world's view of education. VCA has provided that, along with a rigorous education, which has grown our daughter both spiritually and academically. VCA is based on Godly values and lessons. We strive daily to put our focus on the Lord and to serve His Kingdom by serving our students and training them up in the way that they should go (Prov. 22:6). Our daily prayer is that these kids will know Christ better when they walk out each afternoon, than when they walked in that morning. God has been moving in VCA and we look forward to seeing how much His Kingdom will grow within our community. It is an honor to be a part of the work that He is doing here at VCA."
