Dear parents,

Here's a sharing of a parent who drives back and forth everyday from Newmarket to PCA. Want to know the reason of her persistence?

Testimony

Last year, my son was in a disastrous situation at a public school. On a regular basis, he either had gotten off the school bus and was left alone looking for an unlocked door to get to his kindergarten classroom, or in the evenings, he would be left helpless at the playground unable to find his correct school bus. This had continued for 6 months, until a senior bus driver alerted me of her observation -- that it was the school's (not my son's) fault that he was repeatedly left unattended -- nobody cares!

Furthermore, my son frequently returned home from his old school with art work celebrating Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist and Bahá'í's faith days or themes. He countered my teachings on heaven with the curriculum-enforced concept on reincarnation, yet Christianity was never presented. Christmas was only about Frosty the Snowman or Santa and his reindeer.

In the past half year at PCA, however, the tide has changed. Now, he comes home with Bible verses and interesting materials that have helped him to learn about spiritual truths. His reading has improved tremendously; he enjoys music instruction, and he feels safe on the school grounds. Everyone from office to the after-school program staff show true Christian care.

It's truly a blessing that our children are surrounded by people whom we can trust, and we have to thank God and all His faithful servants for everything that they've done for us and our children.

The PAC would like to invite everyone to keep praying for the following:

rezoning issues of the new location be resolved as soon as possible;
enough funds be raised so the project can be started; and
the school continue to grow and thrive, so God's name be glorified.

With Easter just around the corner, let's not forget that Jesus came to die for all of us so we can become righteous in God's eyes. We should always remember to praise Him, be thankful for what we have, and to "live a life worthy of the Lord and may please Him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God". Col 1:10

We're sure that there are many more families who come to PCA for a special reason. Please continue to send your testimony to pac (at) pca (dot) ca so that more people can be inspired and encouraged.

In Him,
