Why We’re “Faith-Based”

Why is Golden Path Academy a “faith-based” child development center?

Simply stated, we believe that every single child deserves to learn how to treat others with love and respect . Our hope is to build the next generation of kindness. In fact, one of our core passions is to give children a framework for truth, rooted in the Creator’s existence and in the Bible’s teachings of love.

Must you be a “Christian” to attend or send your child to Golden Path Academy?

Of course not!

Do you need to be “religious?”

Nope!

That’s not the point.

So – what is the point in being a “faith-based” organization?

Glad you asked!

The point is that we’ve strategically incorporated the core principles of scripture, known as the “Fruits of the Spirit” according to Galatians 5:22-23, throughout our programming.

(In case you’re a little lost…)

The Fruits of the Spirit are: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.

We want to invite you and your child to experience the love and joy that our program can offer through our focus on the whole family. We are centered in teaching about Jesus and the Gospel. Teaching children what its means to have Jesus in our hearts and how the “fruits of the spirit” are skills necessary for life.

We are an inclusive / affirming community and we welcome all people. In truth, our dream is to see an increasing number of families in Loudoun County learn and own these principles of love, respect and kindness in their lives no matter their background, ideology or future.

Ultimately, we believe that the very best way to raise champions and world-changers for the next generation is by teaching our young ones how to love well during some of their most formative years.
