CCA Chapel
In Montana a large number of residents have never been to church or even know someone who has gone to church. These two CCA families helped prepare The Way Christian School and through this school they are reaching out to 50 children in grades K-12, and teaching the first of many future generations about God. Tyler Smith said, "Jesus has given all of us a job to do, and He talks about it in Matthew 28, which is the great commission. We are trying to raise up a child in the way they should go (Proverbs 22:6), and we want our children to serve the Lord and tell others about Him." - Madelyn Mosley

Teacher Spotlight.
Victoria Wilde grew up in Calhoun, Missouri. She is married to Nathaniel Wilde and is currently attending Central Methodist University. Mrs. Wilde previously attended University of Central Missouri. She helps with the preschoolers at CCA. She doesn’t have any children yet; however, she does have 3 dogs, 2 cats and 15 chickens, which she enjoys spending time with. Her favorite bible verse is Isaiah 40:29-31:
He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. --Devoney Conner.
