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.

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 principles: Truth, Training,
Personal Responsibility, Character, Love, and Faith.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
