“Before I came to CCA, I was going to a public school where I was struggling both academically and socially. My grades and social life have greatly improved. I’ve learned so much and truly appreciate being able to talk openly and ask questions about God. I love having a weekly chapel time where I’ve learned more about the Bible.”
