The Vision Becomes Reality

Last year we launched a capital campaign of enormous proportions. The community was pounding at our doors. Parents recognized the need for a holistic classical and Christian education for their child. We asked the Lord to provide for the overflow of new students. He responded by giving us the vision, the donors, and the workers. From the donation of free materials and labor by several generous local companies to the sacrificial giving of our community and every little detail in between, God has provided for us every step of the way.

In August we plan to start school with our new wing open. Our desire is to complete the project debt free and we are on track to do so. With just $361,000 left to raise, we believe that God who called us to meet this need in the community will provide for this need. We ask our community to pray and to give as we are on the home stretch of fundraising for this building.

So far we have been able to give tours of the almost finished facility to many friends, parents, faculty and staff, and our students! They have written verses on the beams and flooring and prayed over this building that it might be a place where God is honored and a new generation is brought up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.

Community members share testimonies of the verses they chose to write on our new wing:

"We chose Galatians 6:2 – Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.

This is the verse we chose for our foundation (lucysimpsonfoundation.com). We feel like that’s a guiding verse for life and the community where we live. PA is our community and certainly a place we can carry each other’s burdens, grow and live in Christ together."

"This was my Mother’s favorite verse and she kept a small plaque of it on her bedroom dresser. She was a sweet Christian lady and lived to be 95 years of age. The verse seems to sum up where our trust is and not in ourselves. It also says to give thanks to God in all things and He will direct our paths. We have tried to trust that verse as we raised our two children and now pass it on to our three grand children.

Proverbs 3: 5-6

Trust in the Lord with all thine heart, and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him and He shall direct thy paths. Thank you for all your work and leadership at Providence Academy."

May God Bless, Terry & Connie Begley, PA Grandparents
