From the Principal's Desk

As we near the end of September, and begin to ramp up for October -  probably the BUSIEST month of the school year for Christian Life Academy… I ask that you all pray fervently for our events coming up.  Over the years, Life Days has become a significant, big deal in the life of our school.  It gives our friends and families a chance to show support of the work that is being done here.  Support comes with participation in activities, with commitment to help financially, and most of all coming alongside the school and indicating “we believe in what God is doing at CLA.”  Thank you in advance for your prayers and participation.  May this season of LIFE DAYS 2021 truly show how GOD is WORKING through this ministry.  I’m excited to continue this journey with all of you!

Blessings,

        Mr. Horning
