Glasgow Christian Academy Sponsoring Churches Glasgow Christian
Academy is an educational institution committed to academic excellence that is
fostered in an atmosphere of Christian conduct and founded upon biblical
principles. To maintain a healthy
balance between the scholastic and spiritual emphasis GCA actively seeks the
involvement and influence of local congregations through their participation as
a sponsoring church. Ø
A sponsoring church will host a “GCA Day” where information
may be shared via bulletins, pulpit announcements, guest speaker, or a display
table featuring the ongoing work at the school. Ø
A sponsoring church will have its pastor serve as a representative
on the Pastoral Advisory Board. This
board meets quarterly for the purpose of prayer, exchange of information, and
determining spiritual direction for the school. From this body will be selected one representative to serve
on GCA School Board. Ø
A sponsoring church will determine for itself the means of support
of the academy whether that is a line item in the budget, a love offering, or
concerted prayer. Ø
A sponsoring church will be publicly identified as a supporting
fellowship via publications and or speaking engagements. Without apology GCA seeks to facilitate a solid academic education based on a Christian worldview. There are doctrinal tenets that provide the faith framework of GCA (see GCA website for complete doctrinal statement). However, matters of particular doctrinal diversity are differed to parents and the local congregation of which the student is a member. The following churches are currently identified as Sponsoring Churches:
If your church would like become a sponsoring church or would like to speak to a representative for more information contact Tracy Shaw (651-7729 or tshaw@glasgowchristian.com). |
