From Our Superintendent, Merida Brooks
The angel said to the women, "Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay.
Matthew 28:5-6
The greatest story ever told is a reality in the hearts and minds of our faculty, staff and students here at Westminster Christian Academy. It is hard to imagine a Father in heaven who loves us SO much that He would send His one and only Son, Jesus, to die on the cross for our salvation. If there had been another way, surely He would have taken it, but His goal was redemption for the people He loves and restoration of a personal relationship with Him.
The red thread of redemption was woven through the classrooms and hearts of our students this week on all three of our campuses as we celebrated the life, death and resurrection of our Savior Jesus Christ!
Please enjoy the clips and slideshows from programs and Easter Walks diligently prepared for by our students, faculty and parents.
Happy Easter! He is risen! What a glorious thought!
His!
Merida Brooks
