Our Statement of Faith 

WE BELIEVE

  • the Bible is the inspired and only infallible and authoritative written Word of God (2 Timothy 3:16).
  • there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit (Deuteronomy 6:4; Matthew 28:19).
  • in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, in His personal future return to this earth in power and glory to rule a thousand years (John 1:1).
  • in the blessed hope – the rapture of the Church at Christ’s coming ( Titus 2:13).
  • the only means of being cleansed from sin is through repentance and faith in the precious blood of Christ ( John 14:6).
  • regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential for personal salvation ( Titus 3:5).
  • in water baptism by immersion ( Matthew 28:19).
  • the redemptive work of Christ on the cross provides healing of the human body in answer to believing prayer (1Peter 2:24).
  • the baptism in the Holy Spirit, according to Acts 2:4, is given to believers who ask for it.
  • in the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a holy life (Galatians 5:16-25).
  • in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost, the one to everlasting life and the other to everlasting damnation (Revelation 20:11-15).

 We make no distinction concerning an individual’s race or ethnic background because we acknowledge that there can be no preferential treatment with God. We are bound to extend our ministry to all we can reach if we are to carry out our Lord’s Great Commission.

 

Vision Statement

Our Vision for MCA is to have an accelerated Christian education program from which every student has the opportunity to receive an excellent education and proper foundation for his/her future success.  

Our Vision is to raise a generation of young people who are grounded in their faith, equipped to compete in the market place, and prepared to excel as they fulfill the marvelous plan that God has ordained for their lives.  

Our Vision is to provide a safe, secure, and enjoyable environment for students to learn and grow.  

Our Vision is to raise our children in the love and admonition of the Lord, while teaching them how to succeed and live for God in a post-Christian world.  

Our Vision is to teach our students the foundation of America’s godly heritage.  This nation was founded and built on Christian principles by believers who were committed to religious freedom a freedom that was purchased with the blood of our forefathers.  It is now our responsibility to teach and maintain the freedoms and heritage that were born out of adversity and bought with such a high price.  

Our Vision is to teach our children how to engage our culture in a positive way.  We are committed to raising a generation of young people who are not afraid to express their faith, and to equip them to be able to share Christ effectively with the people around them.  Our children and young people will be salt and light to their generation.  

Our Vision at MCA is to teach, train and develop students who will be world-changers,  and who will use their gifts, abilities, and talents to reshape their world.

Our Vision is to prepare our students for Eternal Success


Mission Statement  

The mission of MCA is to provide a quality education from 6-weeks through Kindergarten, characterized by excellence in the pursuit of truth from a Christ-centered perspective. MCA is committed to training this generation through sound teaching methods and strategies, while preserving traditional family values based on Judeo-Christian principles, and upholding the patriotic heritage and legacy of this great nation, which has been passed down from our forefathers

MCA, its leadership, and teachers are committed to equipping students for eternal success, as well as earthly success.  Success is based on these six following core principlesTruth, Training, Personal Responsibility, Character, Love, and Faith.
 

  1. The Principle of Truth – At MCA, we are committed to teaching students truth as it relates to education through highly accredited curriculum.  At MCA, we are convinced that God’s word is the foundation upon which all truth rests, and the Bible is accurate when it deals with every science.  Our goal is not to indoctrinate students to a religious persuasion, rather, our goal is to instill knowledge that is consistent, balanced, and reinforced by scripture, not opposed to scripture.  MCA is not a Bible school.  Rather, it is a Christian school that realizes the authority of God’s Word and teaches education from a viewpoint that is consistent with the faith and foundation of God’s Word.  
  1. The Principle of Training – At MCA, we believe it is our responsibility, right, and privilege as Christians, to train our children to succeed spiritually, financially, educationally, and relationally.  Training involves not only educating our youth, but it also involves giving them a safe environment to grow, learn, and develop, as they are coached to make the best life’s decisions.  At MCA, we believe that teaching and training is accomplished through mentoring, and teaching by example, as well as through reading and comprehension.  We strive to enlist teachers who model, exemplify, and practice what is taught.  
  1. The Principle of Personal Responsibility – At MCA, we believe that it is vital that our students be taught personal responsibility in life.  We believe that our rights as individuals are only as secure as our commitment to be responsible to our obligations.  MCA is committed to excellence and it is not a substitute educational program for students who refuse to apply themselves and find themselves forced out of a secular school.  MCA believes in maximizing the potential of every student and helping them reach their potential which cannot be achieved unless and until each student applies himself to become responsible.  
  1. The Principle of Character – At MCA, we focus not only on giving our students the informational knowledge and facts to help them succeed, we strive to teach integrity and character to our students.  MCA believes that you will never become more than what your character will allow.  We believe that students should practice honesty, loyalty, commitment, faithfulness, obedience to authority, kindness, and a strong work ethic.  MCA is committed to excellence of being and not just excellence of doing.  
  1. The Principle of Love – At MCA, we believe that the same commitment that Christ expected from His followers should be the same commitment that MCA expects from its followers.  “By this shall all men know that you are my disciples, if you have love, one for another.”  People don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care.  At MCA, we expect and enlist teachers and leaders who will care for and about your students.  MCA does not exist to give our teachers and educators a job.  MCA exists to give a quality education from a Christ-centered world-view, and to do so in an environment of love.  
  1. The Principle of Faith – At MCA, we believe that the faith of students is a reflection of the faith of their parents and their religious training; and we believe it is our sacred obligation to encourage the faith of students, and not undermine the faith of students.  The Bible says that “faith comes by hearing the word”; we believe that it is our responsibility to uphold the Word of God in our lifestyle, our teaching, our practice, our studies, and our philosophies.  The goal of MCA is not to indoctrinate the student to follow the Assemblies of God denomination.  Our goal is to lead the student to be a faithful follower of Jesus Christ.
