Principal’s Paragraph 

Dear Greenfield Families,

Growing up as a missionary kid, my family ministered to people all over the world. My dad would often remind us that we were on mission as the hands and feet of the Lord, sharing Christ with others everywhere we went. I can remember as young as 5 years old serving people food, sharing the gospel, and genuinely showing the love of Christ.  This mission mindset has carried over to the Greenfield campus.

As we prepare the next generation to impact the world for Christ,  we want to teach our students to have a heart that exemplifies what Matthew 25:40 says. ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.”  At the Greenfield campus, we have an emphasis on serving organizations here in Arizona and around the world.  Throughout the year we will have various drives to collect items needed by specific ministries, Pay to Dress funds will be donated to some, and students will have the opportunity to go serve with some of these ministries.  

We invite you to partner with us in teaching and exemplifying to our students how to “Live on Mission” and be the hands and feet of Jesus.  Please begin to pray with us for the ministries listed below and be on the lookout for how you can participate with our Greenfield campus to be the “hands and feet of Jesus!”
