A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR THE MEMBERS OF THE FIRST GRADUATING CLASS OF NORTHSIDE CHRISTIAN ACADEMY IN LEXINGTON COUNTY AND TO CONGRATULATE THEM AND WISH THEM WELL AS THEY BEGIN THE NEXT PHASE OF THEIR LIFE'S JOURNEYS.

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives are delighted to learn that Northside Christian Academy in Lexington will present its first graduating class at the commencement ceremonies to be held on May 28, 2016; and

Whereas, as a result of a prayerful desire to launch a distinctively Christian school in the Lexington community, Northside Christian Academy opened its doors as a ministry of Northside Baptist Church in September of 2011; and

Whereas, almost seven years ago, one high school student, a pastor, and three mothers began to pray for a Christian school in the Lexington community that would help children and their families to believe, defend, and proclaim the Truth found in Jesus Christ; and

Whereas, those who prayed firmly believe that the school came into existence by God's divine Providence, affirming the words of Jeremiah 33:3, which says, "Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know"; and

Whereas, those who teach and administer at Northside Christian Academy are deeply committed to having a distinct and lasting effect upon their community and nation as they assist parents by providing a wholly Christian education so that their children will be rooted and grounded in a biblical worldview; and

Whereas, the 2016 graduates of Northside Christian Academy will be attending colleges around the State, including the University of South Carolina, the University of South Carolina Aiken, the College of Charleston, The Citadel, Southern Wesleyan University, and Midlands Technical College, as well as colleges outside the State, such as Auburn University in Alabama and Covenant College in Chattanooga, Tennessee; and

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is deeply grateful for the significant work of Northside Christian Academy in educating students to become meaningful contributors of and citizens in our great State, and the members salute the singular accomplishments of the first graduating class of Northside Christian Academy. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, recognize and honor the members of the first graduating class of Northside Christian Academy in Lexington County and congratulate them and wish them well as they begin the next phase of their life's journeys.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Pastor Scott Crede, Administrative Pastor and Head of School.
