Keystone Christian

Education Association

Conference September 29-30, 2016

DoubleTree by Hilton Resort / Willow Valley

Lancaster, PA

to KCEA’s 43 rd Annual Conference

Jesus is often referred to as the Master Teacher Although His classroom oftentimes had no walls and his students ranged in both number, age, and social standing, He knew and understood His

“pupils” and their needs He knew best how to truly teach, to communicate and apply truth with authority, because He was Truth and His words brought spiritual light and life.

We can teach and be effective, as we have learned from having sat at Jesus’ feet and as our lives are directed by the Holy Spirit Yes,

we may teach English or Math or any of the other disciplines But as

we teach, we teach from a Biblical perspective, integrating God’s truth

as the warp and woof of fabric

May we pattern our teaching after the One Who dared to speak the truth boldly and without apology, yet in gentleness and love “Help us, Lord, to be effective communicators to reach our students for Thee so that they,

in turn, can pass on their own faith to others.”

This year’s Assembly speakers are well prepared to address our theme Both are teachers in their own right, each having his own unique body of students, presenting truth to bring understanding, change, and growth.

Be sure to take full advantage of the workshops available to you God has sent leaders to this

Conference who can provide you with additional tools for you and your ministry.

We have two days ahead of us, days filled with instruction, challenge, and encouragement If there

is anything we on KCEA’s Board or staff can do to help you while you are here, please come to us We are here to serve you.

Welcome

Dr Thomas C Coleman KCEA President

in your individual home, church, or school; rather, to edify/benefit all delegates while not offending any individual or group in our movement.

Conference Purpose #3

KCEA organizes the Conference to benefit its affiliating ministries At the same time, if our activity brings benefit to non-affiliating or out-of-state ministries or individuals, we are glad to share the Conference with you Welcome.
