WE BELIEVE:

• that God has made everyone and everything and that He wants every child born into this world to be His child; I Timothy 2:4 "God will have all men to be saved and to come unto the knowledge of the Truth."
• that God has endowed every child with an immortal soul and it is His desire that everyone spend eternity in heaven with Him; John 3:16 "God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life."
• that education of the soul, which prepares the child for eternity, is far more important than education of the mind, which prepares a child for life in this world;
• that a child can best learn to live his faith when instruction from the Word of God is a part of his daily life and is woven into every day and hour of his life; John 20:31 "These are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in His name."
• that a Lutheran School, where every subject is taught from the Christian point of view, can be more successful in leading children to a vital Christian life than any other agency except the Christian home; and
• that a child is not prepared for life in this world until he knows God's plan of salvation and sees himself as a part of His plan.  Only then will he have the proper motive and incentive to prepare himself for an active, useful life of service to God and to his fellow men.
