About

Who We Are

Friends of Faith was formed to encourage the growth of the Christian faith throughout the world primarily by supporting Christian schools that subscribe to a statement of faith consistent with that of the National Association of Evangelicals. Friends of Faith accomplishes its purposes by working with qualified schools so that they can fulfill their Christian mission more effectively.

Our Mission

To support Faith Academy and other Christian schools throughout the world that serve the children of evangelical missionaries as their primary constituency through capital development, purchasing, staff recruitment, and alumni support services. The Friends of Faith seek to encourage and facilitate the spread and growth of the Christian faith throughout the world by providing charitable and educational services to those in need as part of those Christian outreach activities.

Statement of Faith

We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God.

We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory.

We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful people, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential.

We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life.
