"RCA has taken a load of worry and stress from our minds regarding the world our children have to grow up in. I feel that the biblical foundation they are receiving will help them weather the craziness of society without falling victim to its evil devices. There is a spiritual war going on for the hearts and minds of our children. I’m very thankful to have RCA helping us grow strong godly kids!"
