I was empowered to be bold in my faith and confidently serve Jesus. Stockdale Christian helped me see what serving the Lord looked like, and I felt encouraged to live out my faith.
Q&A with Courtney:
What is your favorite memory of SCS
“My favorite memory at SCS is when I came back as a teacher and taught with the teachers who had poured into me as a student. I am also thankful for the lifelong friendships I made while attending SCS.”
how did the education you received at SCS prepare you for Success?
“SCS gave me a strong biblical foundation as I moved on to high school. I was ready to attend public high school and share my faith with my friends and community. Sword drills are a fun memory of how I became very comfortable with my Bible. The Bible memory verses I learned for those eight years have been hidden in my heart, and the Lord brings those verses to my mind during the most impactful moments of my life.”
