Your Role in this Work...

The launch of The Center for Faith & Life has been made possible by the faithful support of friends of Geneva. Already, generous donors have provided $640,000 of the $1 million needed to fund the CFL’s first five years. This strong start reflects both the urgency of the mission and the deep trust in Geneva’s commitment to Christ-centered education.

The work of the CFL builds upon Geneva’s longstanding mission, and it also signals something new; an outward-facing witness that equips Christian educators, engages the academic community, and strengthens churches. This is Geneva at its best — faithful to its heritage and bold in its vision.
