Statement of Faith

Elim Christian Services is based on the conviction that the Bible is the infallible Word of God that provides a Christian world and life view that gives purpose, definition, and context to Elim’s ministry to children and adults with disabilities. Empowered by this vision, Elim Christian Services recognizes its obligation to provide those with disabilities a Christian education and training in vocational and life skills that will equip them to achieve their highest God-given potential.

The ministry is committed to and rooted in the Bible as the infallible Word of God, and stands within the tradition of the Reformation. Elim’s heritage as a ministry is rooted specifically in the Reformed faith as expressed in the teachings of John Calvin, Abraham Kuyper, and in several Christian denominations from the Reformed tradition. In 1952, Elim Christian School was named a benevolent cause of the Christian Reformed Church in North America, and continues to maintain a close relationship with that denomination.
