EDUCATE TO GRADUATE

Each year, more than a million kids will leave school without earning a high school (Senior Grad 12 Cert) this is a “Silent Pandemic” leaving many uneducated which ripple effects into unemployability and poverty.

 

Since late 2019s Covid19 has increased the number of school dropouts due to school program stoppage, as well as many children being left unsupervised because of parents working from home, poor health or because of them being orphaned. A major problem facing girl school dropout is “teenage/unwanted pregnancies”

 

The decision to drop out is not so much because of children choosing to do so voluntarily but rather as a result of life pressures. Children are forced especially child headed homes to help support their family financially or the demands of caring for siblings or their own children. The not so academically inclined sees no connection between “academic life” and "real life”. They feel disconnected from their peers and from teachers and other adults in the community. Schools also have very few resources to meet the complex social, emotional and academic needs of their most vulnerable youth simply because the work load and learner have increased dramatically over the past decade. Boredom and disengagement are two key reasons students drop out of school.

There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour, or randomised words which don't look even slightly believable. If you are going to use a passage of Lorem Ipsum, you need to be sure there isn't anything embarrassing hidden in the middle of text.

Our Statement of Faith

Our Faith

A. The Bible. We believe that the Bible, consisting of the Old and New Testaments, is the inspired and inerrant Word of God and is the final authority for Christian faith and life.

B. The Trinity. We believe that there is but only one true and living God who exists in the past, the present, and forever throughout eternity in the Trinity of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

C. God the Father. We believe there is only one God, who created, preserves, and rules over the universe. The historical account of creation found in Genesis declares that God is the personal and direct Creator of all that exists, including the first humans Adam and Eve, from whom all human beings have come.

D. God the Son: Jesus Christ. We believe in the deity of Christ (John 10:33); His virgin birth (Isa. 7:14, Matt 1:23, Luke 1:35); His sinless life (Heb. 4:15, 7:26); His miracles (John 2:11); His vicarious and atoning death (1 Cor. 15:3, Eph. 1:7, Heb. 2:9); His resurrection (John 11:25, I Cor. 15:4); His ascension to the right hand of the Father (Mark 16:19); His personal return in power and glory (Acts 1:11, Revelation 19:11).

E. Holy Spirit. We believe that the Holy Spirit is the Spirit of God and is fully divine. He convicts individuals of sin, of righteousness, and of judgment, and He enables believers to comprehend God’s truth as revealed in Scripture. He indwells and empowers believers for godly service, for worship, and for witness.

F. Baptism and the Lords Supper. We believe that baptism and the Lord’s Supper are the two sacraments of the church. They must be observed under the discipline of the local church. They do not have any saving merit. (Acts 2:41-47; 8:36-39; Romans 6:3-5; 1 Corinthians 11:23-28)

Daily Prayers

G. Salvation. We believe God offers eternal life as a free gift through His Son Jesus Christ and that it must be received by faith alone through God’s grace alone.(Eph 2:8-9)

H. The Church. We believe that Jesus Christ is Head of the church, comprised of all true believers in Him. Christians are to associate themselves as members of local churches and to serve Jesus Christ faithfully in carrying out the Great Commission. Each church has the authority and right from Jesus Christ to govern itself and to administer order, to worship, and to carry out its various ministries.

I. Evangelism and Missions. We believe that it is the privilege and duty of all believers to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ personally and by all methods in harmony with Holy Scripture. A Christ-centered education includes the ongoing integration of biblical faith into every academic discipline of the University. All subject matter is to be approached, presented, and evaluated from a biblical worldview

J. Last Things. In accord with biblical prophecy, we believe that God will bring the world to its appropriate end, that Jesus Christ will return personally and visibly in glory to the earth, that the dead will be raised, and that Christ will judge all humanity in righteousness. Unbelievers will be consigned to the place of everlasting punishment, while the redeemed in their resurrected and glorified bodies will dwell forever with the Lord in Heaven..

Continuous Teaching

K. Life of the Believer. We believe that Christians should be consistent with Scripture in their character and in their conduct. We believe that the Bible is our supreme authority and that it provides the moral and ethical principles for personal conduct within and outside the academic community.

 

Spiritual Family

We believe all Christians should belong to a “Spiritual Family”, where they are sons and daughters not “Members”. The complete picture of this family is that of a Holy Nation that exists as one united functioning Body under Christ's headship that displays the Kingdom of God in the earth (Psalm 133)
