Being a Christian school, we really need to focus on how do we instill Christian values into our kids?

And I can only do so much as a parent throughout the course of the week. So to have Faith Strong as a key component of our education here, it means that the work I'm trying to do, the school is backing me up with.

We have gathering time for elementary students and middle school chapel. It's a time for our community to come together and to center our week on worshipping together.

When kids come here, they can grow in their faith and become really strong in their faith here. And for me, I have becoming really strong in my faith.

The level of maturity with these kids and their attitude and how they do it is unbelievable throughout every stage. It's amazing.

It's a starting point for conversations. It’s woven throughout what we do.  And it's the end goal. Through all the we do, that we can honor Christ and that we can grow our faith.

I want our kids to be grounded in their faith and I want them to be so grounded that they can be in the community and that they can be role models and that they can be leaders and that they can make good decisions.

In Bible, it's cool to see the kids starting to make their faith their own. We really try to help them wrestle with big questions like, who is God, who and I, and how to do I follow someone I can't see?

I think my faith has definitely become a lot stronger. There comes a certain time where you have to make that decision for yourself. No one can tell you what to believe anymore. It’s definitely one of the most important decisions that you'll make in your life.

Because of our Christ-centeredness and our calling to be agents of change in this world, we also know that mean we have to be strong academically.

I've seen God in the teachers. They're all really nice and they relate God to everything. And you can see how He's influenced their lives.

Because of our faith, we can have strong academics. We can have strong athletics, we can have strong relationships. But it's by God's grace.

Faith is who we are. Faith it why we're here. It is our faith that brings us together as that family and makes us who we are. So without faith, Ada Christian School wouldn't be Ada Christian School.
