By training our students in the wonderful "discipline and instruction that comes from the Lord" (Ephesians 6:4), they are prepared to face life`s challenges with empathy, love, wisdom and truth. Our students are built with the foundation of the Rock so that they mature into leaders that will change culture for Christ - here in Watford City, the United States, and throughout the world. We emphasize God`s specific plan for each individual`s life so that students realize the complete and all-consuming love of "Christ, which surpasses knowledge" (Ephesians 3:19), and, in turn, reflect that love to everyone around them.
- It is a joy to partner with the Christian home and church to train young people to live deliberately for the Lord. By working in unity with our parents and community, we showcase real-world cooperation under the banner of God`s unconditional love, giving students an opportunity to witness His character in the real world.
