Mission of Grace:
GCS exists to encourage students to develop a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, providing an affordable, Christ-centered quality education; challenging students academically and spiritually to be used by Him.
Vision of Grace:
We seek to serve Christ by preparing children, through a foundation of faith and academic excellence, to live God-honoring lives by:
Offering a traditional curriculum that will build confidence, increase excitement for learning, and enrich children's daily lives.
Encouraging a family-oriented atmosphere where students are valued and loved, focusing on discipling and mentoring as avenues for maturity and growth.
Inspiring students to be an active part of the body of Christ in the local church, and to have a desire to reach people in Christ's name.
Cultivating and preparing future leaders to impact local communities, our nation, and the world in all aspects of life.
We believe:
The Bible is the infallible Word of God, supernaturally inspired and preserved by God to be the only authority and standard for doctrine and practice.
One true God exists eternally in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit, and is the creator and sustainer of the Universe.
The person Jesus Christ in the flesh is both God and man. He was virgin born, lived a sinless life, was crucified for our sins, conquered death and the grave through His bodily resurrection, ascended into heaven and will come again for His own.
The person of the Holy Spirit is God who indwells, baptizes and seals all believers at the moment of their salvation and enables them to live a consistent, godly, separated life.
Man was created in the image of God but subsequently fell into sin, resulting in spiritual death. Salvation is provided wholly by grace through faith in Jesus Christ.
The visible church is a congregation of baptized believers practicing biblical principles, believing its doctrine, observing the ordinances of baptism and communion and being autonomous but cooperating in fellowship and work.
The future life of mankind will be a conscious existence of eternal life for the saved in Christ and eternal punishment for those who are lost in their sin.
