Cement Your Legacy  

Purchase a Personalized Family Brick

 In Fall 2026, we will open the doors to our new Next Generation Building, a two-story, 14,000-sq-ft expansion that will enable us to serve more students, strengthen our academic and biblical worldview programs, and continue equipping the next generation to impact their homes, churches, and communities for Christ.

To help fund this important project, we are asking our community to purchase a personalized, legacy brick.  Your brick will be permanently installed in the walkways surrounding the new Next Generation Building—visible to students, families, and guests for decades to come.

You can engrave:
✔ Your family name
✔ A favorite Scripture
✔ Your child or grandchild’s name
✔ A meaningful message or memory
✔ A tribute in honor or in memory of
     someone you love
