Our Legacy, Our Calling
Mariners Christian School was founded nearly 40 years ago with a steadfast commitment to spiritual formation and academic excellence. From the beginning, we have been a covenant school for decidedly Christian families—a place where children grow in faith, character, and knowledge.
That mission has never wavered. Today, just as in 1987, we remain committed to raising up a generation who loves God, lives faithfully, and leads with wisdom.
Now, through Firm Foundation: A Five-Year Strategic Plan to Secure a Flourishing Future, and the capital campaign that supports it, we are deepening that commitment. This initiative is more than an investment in facilities and programs—it is a declaration of purpose. At the heart of everything we do is the desire to build a firm foundation centered solely in Christ in the life of every student. That is why MCS exists.
Through this campaign, we are equipping our school to remain steadfast in delivering a Christ-centered education—one that forms hearts, shapes minds, and prepares students to flourish in faith and life for generations to come.
A Campaign for the Flourishing Future of Mariners Christian School
Securing Our Decidedly Christian Legacy
The Firm Foundation Capital Campaign is a bold and comprehensive $12 million initiative that is vital to ensuring our Kingdom impact not only endures—but expands—for generations to come. This long-term investment will establish the strongest possible foundation for the students of today and for countless future Lions to follow.
As part of our Firm Foundation: A Strategic Plan for a Flourishing Future, this campaign makes it possible for every initiative within the plan to not only be realized—but sustained. It ensures that Mariners Christian School remains mission-true as a covenant, Christian school, while equipping us to grow and advance in the most transformative ways. With Christ at the center of all we do, the Firm Foundation Capital Campaign empowers us to remain unwavering in our calling: to deliver exceptional, Christ-centered education that forms hearts, minds, and lives for His glory.
- Protect our position as a covenant school.
- Ensure every student experiences the transformative power of an exemplary Christ-centered education.
- Secure long-term sustainability by achieving a debt-free future.
- Expand the Legacy Endowment to better support Christian families who desire the education MCS offers.
Why Now?
We live in a world that desperately needs places committed to God’s truth. MCS stands as a beacon, preparing students to live out their faith with courage and conviction. To continue this calling with strength and stability, we must build on a firm financial foundation.
An Invitation to Faithful Giving
We believe this campaign is God’s call for our school, and we are prayerfully inviting the extended MCS community to faithfully respond. Reaching this goal will require God’s people—those who believe in Christian education and love MCS—to boldly step forward with sacrificial gifts.
Every gift, no matter the size, is an active step for the Kingdom. Each contribution strengthens the foundation for future generations of students who will know God, love others, and impact the world for Christ.
Together, we will secure our decidedly Christian legacy.
