Lehigh Christian Academy (Closed 2011)

The primary purpose of Lehigh Christian Academy is to glorify God and enjoy Him forever.
We believe that a Christian education that holds that God is central and everything exists in relation to Him will glorify Him.
To enjoy God forever a person must know the Lord Jesus Christ as personal Savior and Living Lord; therefore, Lehigh Christian Academy seeks to present Him in its entire program.
"Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent" (John 17:3).
"We proclaim Him, admonishing and teaching everyone with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone perfect (complete, mature) in Christ.
To this end (we) labor, struggling with all his energy, which so powerfully works in (us)" (Colossians 1 :28, 29).
