Core Values

1. Christ-centered - Jesus is the prince of peace and foundation of all knowledge. The Holy Spirit guides us to be vigilant Christians. "For no one can lay any foundation other than the one that has been laid; that foundation is Jesus Christ." I Corinthians 3:11

2. Make darkness visible - Faith is strengthened when we stay true to God. If we do not speak out against dark actions, unopposed forces of evil will deceive more souls. "Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves." Matthew 10:16

3. Deliver acts of kindness - If a person does not want to receive education we offer, we seek to demonstrate what we teach with acts of kindness. St. Francis of Assisi taught this when he instructed people to serve people who were not open to Christian messages. Love is caring in action. "He who does not love does not know God, for God is love." 1 John 4:8

4. Be peacemakers - Recognize the good from violence is temporary but the evil from violence is permanent. "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God." Matthew 5:9
