At Greer Christian Learning Center we enter this school year with anticipation and urgency. We look forward to another year of sharing the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ to the students at Greer and Blue Ridge. So many of these students know nothing of God’s design for their life and of His love for them, and it is our responsibility to tell them. Knowing that most people who come to Christ do so before leaving high school, we must be sure they hear, for “faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God” (Romans 10:17). This is our urgent calling. On behalf of the board of directors and staff of Greer Christian Learning Center, I want to thank you for your faithfulness to the call of God to take the gospel to the greatest field of harvest in America. Your gifts and prayers are critical for these students! May God bless you richly. -Joe Price, President of GCLC
