The mission of Harps Crossing Christian Academy (HCCA) is to provide quality education in a Christian environment while supporting families in the important task of child rearing. One of our goals is to encourage the development of the whole child: mentally, physically, spiritually, and socially. Athletics are an integral part of this process.
At HCCA, our perspective is based on the following biblical principles:
And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him. (Colossians 3:17, ESV)
Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men. (Col. 3:23 ESV)
These principles put winning in a proper perspective and yet do not diminish the importance of the outcome. We expect athletes and coaches to give their best, and to foster a competitive atmosphere. Individual success at the team, region, and state level is the dream of most athletes, and we hope that all HCCA athletes will experience the thrill of performing well, of winning, of rising to one’s potential. Yet the highest goal is to live a life that honors God. Maintaining this balanced perspective will allow athletes to be and do their best.
