Teaching at LCS has been a journey for the past 29 years. I have seen many changes, many turns in the road behind and before LC. Yet I love seeing how God remains faithful, working through various situations as He molds and shapes the lives of our students as they grow academically, socially, emotionally, and, most importantly, spiritually. I have so enjoyed being a small part of God’s plan throughout these years. He has remained faithful and He needs to continue to be the focal point in our lives and this ministry. My prayer and heart’s desire is that we would continue to seek God’s wisdom and truth, trusting Him with all and in all that we do.
equippingMinds minds equipping Intermediate School Our mission to equip students is relevant to their present and future, their time attending LC and the journey that will follow. The Intermediate School (grades 5 - 6) of Lititz Christian initiates a gradual transition to middle school life. Beginning in grade 5, students change classes for major subjects, instructed by a team of three teachers who collaborate to develop an instructional program that meets the student’s needs. Our goal is that students will thrive equipped for the academic challenges and social pressures of middle school. We believe a smaller community of learners and teachers fosters growth of positive relationships, improves student performance, and facilitates the development of responsibility and organizational skills for future learning.
Spanish Programs Today, foreign languages are essential to quality education as God opens doors world- wide to those willing to serve Him in a variety of capacities. In 2011, the elementary students were introduced to the Spanish language program, which has quickly become one of our student’s favorite classes. All grades receive one or two periods of grade level Spanish each week. Teaching students to speak a secondary language, like Spanish, is a vital part of equipping them for success in their future careers, missions, and their everyday lives. Beginning this learning at the elementary level only adds to our mission to provide student with a quality education, one that equips and empowers students to cross over the boundaries of language.
Tim Willard Former Student Author of VENEER
In a culture where cynicism has become the dominant philosophy, where belief stands under attack on a daily basis, Christians must stand as a beacon of what authentic faith looks like. It is also incumbent upon educators to equip students with the tools for right living. Lititz Christian School (LCS) has an opportunity to lead out in this regard. By leading students through a book like Veneer: Living Deeply In A Surface Society, among other books of similar subject matter, LCS has taken a step to help students understand what it means to live an authentic life that boldly proclaims Christ--not only through proclamation of His Word but by living it. I was fortunate to have coached both Junior High and Varsity women's watched the maturation of a back-to-back champion team, I also observed
young women seize the opportunity to distinguish themselves through their on-court play but even more so in their commitment and service to one another. They lived deeply with one another and showed a watching public that the size of a school does not matter. Rather, it is the depth of a person's soul that sets them apart and enables them to rise to their full potential. It is that soul that has been entrusted to LCS to form in the Way most glorious. Academic excellence is of utmost importance, but only when then can we see the wonder of what His world has to offer. And there it is, to show a cynical world the power of a soul renewed; a soul born again.

Parents, teachers, administration, and supporters of LC value the quest each student embarks upon as they search for purpose and identity. LC enriches souls academic programs where students explore their passions and utilize their talents. Beyond the curriculum and Christ-centered education, LC understands the importance of discipleship and investing in the lives and hearts of the students.

ELC We are a Christian Early Learning Center, teaching about God through a Bible focused program and a staff who nurtures each child through love. We believe that every child deserves the heritage of the knowledge of God and His Son, and without it, education is not complete. It is our desire to see each child grow mentally, physically, emotionally, socially, and spiritually. The trust of parents and the commitment of a dedicated staff create a family atmosphere that fosters a safe environment where learning and growing is fun. The ELC serves the community of parents who are seeking childcare as well as schooling for their children. We are pleased and proud to provide a staff that is well trained in caring for and educating children. ACSI, Keystone Stars, and guidance from the PA learning standards help us to maintain a level of excellence and accountability that make our center exceptional.

Coach Kennedy has watched this particular group of girls mature into young women who understand that even a volleyball match can bring glory to God.

Every individual involved in the students’ lives at LC are on their own journey to know God more and willing to come alongside students to “spur [them] on toward love and good deeds” (Heb. 10:24). Our desire, as a ministry, is that our students’ lives will be enriched by a faculty who are committed to their calling to teach and disciple.

As a result of the Lord guiding Ross to LC, a door was opened for LC 8th graders to spend their school year praying for and writing letters to the children at the Ranch. The relationships that developed through letter writing have left a beautiful impact on both groups of students.

During my senior year, I was able to participate in the open campus program, provided with the opportunity to observe and help in 4th and 5th grade classrooms. This was such an incredible experience as I was able to see the "teacher" side of the classroom before even getting to college. Not only do I already have ideas for my future classroom, but I also built awesome relation-

Instead of sitting study hall, I had the opportunity to work three days a week during school hours. It was a great experience. The faculty at LC tries their absolute best to propel each student into his/her own future as successfully as possible. I will truly miss all of the support and love I received from all of my teachers during my time at Lititz Christian.

Had it not been for Pastor Young, the role he played in my father’s salvation, and his vision for Lititz Christian School, I would not be who I am today, nor blessed with the opportunity to work closely with the people involved in the ministry of LC for this project. When Rick Bernhardt asked if I would be willing to help, I accepted, honored to take part in returning praise to God for how He has used LC to impact thousands of lives for Christ. LC is not perfect; no myself serve is perfect. His gospel is the treasure found in jars of clay. By learning the truth of the Bible and seeing it lived out in the lives of my mentors, I was constantly inspired to seek Christ and grow in my own relationship with Him. Two years ago, I spent a summer in an Andean village in
Peru on a mission’s trip. Throughout that summer, I was reminded that my most powerful testimony comes through being the aroma of Christ through my daily lifestyle, even during the moments when nobody is watching. LC is the Because of the teachers, coaches, and students I built relationships with at LC, I truly know what it means to be discipled. They were and continue to be more than teachers or coaches that I used to know. Their impact on my life is something that will constantly turn my heart to praise. It is a beautiful example relationship with God.”

INVESTORS What could be greater than investing in the life of a young person? God’s message
As an educator, I love to teach and I believe in life-long learning. As a Christian and a member of the Board of Education at LCS for many years, I believe that teaching children about Christ and the TRUTH of the Bible is what Christians are called to do. I have been able to work toward these goals by serving with a team to hire talented, motivated, and dedicated Christian teachers to work daily with the LCS children as they work toward “hav(ing) the full riches of complete understanding, in order that they may know the mystery of God, namely, Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.” (Colossians 2:2b-3)
(Luke12:34; Matt.6:21, NIV). Lititz Christian School challenges students to develop their knowledge, gifts, talents, and abilities in a Christ- Centered environment where caring and compassionate teachers, administrators, and support staff get to know students on a foundational level. Through an extraordinary academic program, Lititz Christian teachers work with students and parents to develop the mind, body, and spirit of each student, motivating them to use their gifts to honor and glorify God. As a parent and supportive business owner, my investment in the work of Lititz Christian School enables students to articulate their faith in a diverse and dynamic

another in love.” This perfect directive encourages us to lovingly serve and do our part to pass on our Christian heritage to our children, our next generation.
HENRY WEBER “Before the ages began”…God had a purpose and a plan for Henry Weber. No man could have ever seen how the threads of Henry’s life would come together and result in his tremendous impact on the success of Lititz Christian. He was a farm boy with a Mennonite background; he’s been a pilot, he’s dreamed of becoming a missionary doctor overseas. He has served as an elder at Grace Church for 17 years. Through all the twists and turns of his full life, Henry has learned that God’s plan is better than any plan of his own. He continues to see how God has been shaping him for a holy purpose. Sit and talk with Henry and you will hear him constantly return to his faith and trust in God’s plan. “God has given to me, and I want to give back,” shares Henry. A smile crosses his face as he leans in after sharing the ups and downs he has encountered in years past; “I examples of how he learned to walk by faith, even when others advised him against taking the risks. Yet he counted the cost of faith, put in the time and the work, and relied on God. The next thing he says is 2 Timothy 1:9: “[God], who saved us and called us to a holy calling, not because of our works but because of His own purpose and grace, which He gave us in Christ Jesus before the ages began…”
17
This verse shows a lot about Henry’s passion for Christian education. He loves watching young people equipped with a foundational Christian education. His desire is that Lititz Christian will continue to be a place where students will learn to follow God’s plan just as he did. Henry is a “hands-on” kind of man. Through the history of Lititz Christian, he has played a role in building and improving Lititz Christian facilities, student scholarships, and founding the high school. His generosity allowed for the remodeling of the gymnasium and he was there every day until the project was completed. “When you see something coming together and succeeding, you know that the Lord doing at LC as he can. He loves attending the musicals and plays. And he has never missed a graduation ceremony. We, at LC, are not just grateful for how God has used Henry to bless our ministry or his loyalty and passion for Christian education. We are encouraged by his passion for a beautiful partnership between Grace Church and Lititz Christian through this time of transition. He is a trust in God. He models that willing spirit we are called to have as God uses us for his great purpose and plan.
