Prudential Spirit of Community Award

NJUCA — Tue, 13 Mar 2012 19:17:01 +0000

Brianna Acacia, one of our 8th grade students, has been honored for her exemplary volunteer service with a state level Certificate of Excellence from the 2012 Prudential Spirit of Community Awards Program. She was nominated for this award by The Girl Scouts of the Jersey Shore in Farmingdale, where she is a member.

Brianna earned her award for creating a project which included a collection of suitcases and essentials for foster children. Since most foster children carry their belongings from family to family in plastic bags, Brianna wanted them to have something they could call their own.

God bless Brianna for truly showing the compassion of Christ.

Monthly Ministries

NJUCA — Sun, 01 Jan 2012 19:31:48 +0000

Each month NJUCA students select an organization to minister to through financial and other support. Representatives from these organizations speak at our Chapel throughout the school year. This year our students have supported the following organizations:

Dream Alive (A ministry of Arabs and Americans working together to spread the Gospel to Muslims in America ); Promised Land Ministry (serving the children of Guatemala since 1991); and Samaritan’s Purse (International Christian relief and evangelism organization provides spiritual and physical aid to victims of war, poverty, natural disaster, and disease).

For 2012, our students have chosen to support Camp Melody (a non-profit organization allowing boys ages 10-14 year old to attend summer camp for one week free of cost. Many of the campers are in the foster care system or come from broken homes); and Angel’s Haven (an orphanage and school for the handicapped). The students collect a donation of $3.00 to help support these organizations. For more information, please ask your child or contact the school office.

What a great time we had at our first alumni luncheon! It was a exciting to catch up with the 24 alumni who attended.

Everyone enjoyed a delicious Italian lunch and were entertained with special music from the NJUCA hand bell choir and vocal choir. The alumni had a fun time exhibiting their artistic abilities making ginger bread houses with NJUCA students.

Four of our alumni, Cara McCarty, Joy Wallsten, Tad Wallsten, and Jordan Renaud, shared what was happening in their lives.

We look forward to seeing all our alumni at next year’s luncheon!
