(Applicant's signature) (Date) Mission Statement: Christian School of York exists to assist Christian parents in fulfilling their responsibility of training of their children by providing a total educational program that is biblically sound, Christ-honoring, and of high standards. We seek to produce students who recognize and practice the lordship of Christ in all of life and learning and who are thus equipped to function well in society and as member of the body of Christ. Basis of Faith: 1. We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible authoritative Word of God.(2 Peter 1:20,21;2 Timothy 3:15,16) 2. We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons Father, Son and Holy Spirit. (Matthew 28:19)

6 3. We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His 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. (Philippians 2:6-11, 1 Peter 3:18, Hebrews 2:9, Romans 5:9, Acts 2:23,24, Hebrews 8:1, Matthew 26:64) 4. We believe that for salvation of the lost and sinful man, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential. (Titus 3:4-7) 5. We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life. (1 Thessalonians 5:23, Acts 1:8) 6. We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved unto the resurrection of life, and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation. (1 Corinthians 15:20-23, John 5:28, 29) 7. We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ. (Ephesians 1:22,23, Matthew 28:19-20, Acts 2:41-47) Revised: Sanctity of Marriage: A Corporate Resolution of the Trustees of the Christian School of York Association Our statement of faith does not exhaust the extent of our beliefs. The Bible itself, as the inspired and infallible Word of God that speaks with final authority concerning truth, morality, and the proper conduct of mankind, is the sole and final source of all that we believe. For purposes of the Christian School of York s faith, doctrine, practice, policy, and discipline, the Board of Trustees is the Christian School of York s final interpretive authority on the Bible s meaning and application. We believe in the dignity of every human who is made in the image and likeness of God. An individual s biological sex, either male or female, is sovereignly and irreversibly appointed by God and is an irreversible aspect of his or her nature. These two distinct, complementary genders together reflect the image and nature of God. (Gen 1:26-27) Rejection of one s biological sex is a rejection of the image of God within that person. Human sexuality is regulated by Scripture which declares that marriage is the union between one man and one woman and that sexual intimacy is reserved for marriage only. Therefore, any sexual expressions outside of that realm (sex before marriage, homosexuality, adultery, fornication, etc.) are immoral and against God s design. We also are to abstain from the promotion and advocacy of the aforementioned. (Leviticus 20:13a, Romans 1:27, Matthew 19:4-6) This Resolution adopted by the Board of Trustees of the Christian School Association of York 9/22/15. I understand and agree with the statements in this document. Maintaining my commitment to provide a Christian role model I affix my signature as an indication of full support.
