Our Foundation

 RCA exists because of the vision of God's people in Riverland Baptist Church. As Godly parents began to see their children drift into sin and forsake the heritage they had in the Christian faith, some knew that it was time to rid their children of the influences that were ripping apart the very fabric of the Christian home. Something had to be done to help parents who were struggling to train their children as the Bible commands: Deuteronomy 6:5-7 - "And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all they might. And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart: And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up." Proverbs 22:6 - "Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it."

That answer was a school of their own. A school where Godly teachers could not only provide expertise in education but also provide what they really need - assistance in building their children's faith! Therefore, Riverland Christian Academy was created; not a mere institution of reading and writing, but as an active partner in the spiritual warfare which is the Christian life.
