OUR<br />
MISSION<br />
The mission of<br />
Georgia-Cumberland<br />
Academy is to foster an<br />
educational environment<br />
of excellence where<br />
students, faculty and staff<br />
pursue a shared quest:<br />
TO KNOW<br />
Jesus as Savior<br />
and Friend<br />
TO LOVE<br />
God and those He<br />
brings into our lives<br />
TO SERVE<br />
the church and society<br />
MULTIPLE GIFTS HELP<br />
CONTINUE THE MISSION<br />
GREG GERARD<br />
PRINCIPAL<br />
From the Principal<br />
The pictures that were<br />
produced by the architectural<br />
firm we hired are beautiful. The<br />
drawings of the new gymnasium<br />
and cafeteria building were<br />
striking to us when we first saw<br />
them. When we have shown<br />
these pictures to people it is not<br />
uncommon that people would<br />
react by saying something that<br />
often included the word “wow!”<br />
Now we can walk around and<br />
inside the emerging structure. The<br />
same word often escapes the lips of whoever is seeing our new facility for<br />
the first time. It is an amazing process to see this new structure emerge from<br />
the ground. And it is sometimes hard to believe that it is actually happening.<br />
That same feeling of amazement at God’s incredible blessings extends<br />
to the realization that many people have banded together to give the<br />
money needed to bring these new facilities to <strong>GCA</strong>. I well remember the<br />
first time I looked at the beautiful depictions of new gymnasium, cafeteria,<br />
student center, classrooms and entrance. I loved the images – at the same<br />
time I silently thought, “How in the world will we ever come up with the<br />
money for all of that?” Well, the answer was far outside of this world. God<br />
was moving on the hearts of many people to make it happen, and we have<br />
been blessed beyond my wildest dreams!<br />
We are still looking for the additional resources to fully pay the bills<br />
on these projects. To our frustration, costs have gone up due to unforeseen<br />
challenges and cost increases. But funding has continued to be committed to<br />
help meet those increases. Through it all, God has poured down his blessings<br />
to bring over $11.7 million to <strong>GCA</strong> for this project, so I have no doubt He<br />
will close the final gap. God may even be calling you to be a part of His<br />
amazing multiplication of gifts that is now taking place at <strong>GCA</strong>.<br />
We praise God for what He has done and what He has promised to do<br />
as He moves people to invest in this important ministry. What a privilege<br />
to partner with Him to build for the future of <strong>GCA</strong> and participate in<br />
Continuing the Mission to impact lives for eternity.<br />

THE MULTIPLICITY OF ENDOWMENTS<br />
From The <strong>GCA</strong> Board<br />
Jesus taught us, as recorded by His disciple Matthew, in chapter 18, verses<br />
3-5: “Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will<br />
never enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, whoever takes the lowly position of<br />
this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoever welcomes one<br />
such child in my name welcomes me.”<br />
Scripture makes it clear that our Lord values youth and urges us to become<br />
like them, but do we really value children as He did?<br />
Obviously Georgia-Cumberland Academy values youth as demonstrated<br />
by its stated mission and vision, but recently the school showed an even clearer<br />
commitment by partnering with the Georgia-Cumberland Conference to establish<br />
an endowment fund that values youth with assistance for those in financial need.<br />
Since its inception in 2012 the <strong>GCA</strong> Worthy Student Endowment has grown<br />
from $5,000,000 to a balance of $5,268,027 while paying out $910,000 to worthy<br />
students along the way! This fund is not only growing but benefiting children<br />
while doing so.<br />
To top it off, this resource came along just as other funds were going away.<br />
Once again, as He typically does, God shows His true character by providing for those He values.<br />
KEVIN KOSSICK<br />
VICE PRESIDENT OF EDUCATION,<br />
GEORGIA CUMBERLAND<br />
Do you value children as He does? You can demonstrate what you value by providing financial assistance to <strong>GCA</strong> through<br />
the endowment fund while having confidence that the Lord will lead a child in need to <strong>GCA</strong> who will be blessed by your gift<br />
and the life changing blessing of a Christian education.<br />

<strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Report</strong> 2
A LOOK BACK AT <strong>GCA</strong> FINANCES<br />
From the Treasurer<br />
There are many things that make up a strong school: staff, students, buildings,<br />
academics, and programs. Supporting all of those is a solid financial base. I am<br />
grateful to God to report to you that <strong>GCA</strong> continues to thrive and grow and has<br />
a healthy financial picture. We have clean audits and operate in the black, having<br />
set aside enough working capital to be able to function normally for at least five<br />
months should we have an unexpected emergency. There is never a question<br />
about <strong>GCA</strong> having to close its doors.<br />
While there are many reasons for our healthy status, five immediately come<br />
to mind:<br />
1. Enrollment – for many years, our enrollment has met or exceeded what<br />
we have budgeted.<br />
2. Collections – we have a 99% collection rate, which can sometimes be a<br />
challenging task, but it is vital to the health of our school.<br />
3. Conference and union subsidies contribute significantly to our bottom<br />
line. Many people think that our budget is based totally on the tuition<br />
we receive. You may be interested to know that our tuition fees only pay<br />
for 69% of what we need to accomplish our work.<br />
4. Donations, large and small, positively impact our ability to provide tuition<br />
assistance and program enrichment. In addition, donor contributions<br />
have made it possible for us to expand current facilities and build new<br />
ones.<br />
Deborah Theus<br />
<strong>GCA</strong> Treasurer<br />
5. Realistic budget – we work hard to stay within the budget that has been established and approved by the school<br />
finance committee and school board.<br />
For the above reasons, and others that contribute to our positive financial status, we give all the glory to God. Thank<br />
you for praying that God will continue to bless <strong>GCA</strong>.<br />

My name is Kaiden Coker and I am a<br />
sophomore at <strong>GCA</strong>. Through my time<br />
at <strong>GCA</strong> I have become a better person<br />
spiritually and academically. Without the<br />
people who donated to keep me here at<br />
this school I would probably not be able<br />
to stay. I just want to thank the donors<br />
who helped me and my family get through<br />
these years. I majorly appreciate the<br />
generosity that has kept me here.<br />
The best memories in my life have<br />
been made here, and I still have<br />
two more years to go!<br />

Thank you so much for your generosity! You have made a major<br />
impact on my life, especially my spiritual life. The amazing<br />
opportunities <strong>GCA</strong> has for me here will help me thrive into the Godloving<br />
person I want to be. I would not be at <strong>GCA</strong> if it was not God’s<br />
plan. There were some factors that made my coming to <strong>GCA</strong> an iffy<br />
situation for my parents. The decision was hard on them, but it was<br />
clear that this was God’s plan when we were told that the amount we<br />
were unable to pay had been paid by someone else. Thank you so<br />
very much for helping me find my path to God and the right way of life.<br />
I adore everything about <strong>GCA</strong>, my wonderful friends, the incredible<br />
teachers and deans, and my amazing bosses. I also adore the clubs<br />
and classes I am in. My non-academic classes I attend are praise<br />
band and the newspaper, and soon I will be joining band as well. I am<br />
super excited to get involved here. I have already done a sermon for<br />
vespers, and done a chapel talk, so I am definitely getting involved<br />
and being proactive. All of this is only happening because God<br />
touched you to donate your money to give me the chance to<br />
attend this school. I am so unbelievably appreciative and<br />
touched that anyone would do this for me.<br />

I would like to thank you personally for your generous<br />
donations that enable students, such as myself, to attend<br />
<strong>GCA</strong>. Because of your support I have been able to take full<br />
advantage of the opportunities given here. It is by God’s grace<br />
that I am currently involved in gymnastics, soccer, praise<br />
band, and band while maintaining a 3.8 GPA. As I’m sure you<br />
know, God provides many avenues of success for us, His<br />
children, as we submit ourselves wholly to Him. 1 Peter 5:6,7<br />
says “Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of<br />
God, that he may exalt you in due time: Casting all your care<br />
upon him; for he careth for you” (KJV). In other words, this is<br />
my key to success. I don’t worry about my financial issues or<br />
my packed schedule because I know that God is in control of it<br />
all. He takes care of His children. God knew that some would<br />
need financial support, so He provided you with the means<br />
to aid me and many others to attend <strong>GCA</strong>. By your faithful<br />
actions, He is sure to bless you in return. Thank you for<br />
allowing God to use you to provide for the needs of others.<br />
Sincerely, Calvin Scott<br />

Impossible! Ludicrous! Out of the question! When some people face completely improbable<br />
situations they give up. Not Shirley Johnston.<br />
In 1999 when the oldest of her four children was finishing the 8th grade and preparing for<br />
academy there was no question of where Jessica wanted to go to school. But as a single<br />
mother, struggling to make ends meet, Shirley didn’t know how it could ever happen. The longrange<br />
plan from the beginning was for all four children to enroll at <strong>GCA</strong>. That summer Shirley<br />
went to the Lord about her needs, packed Jessica up with everything she needed to move into<br />
the dorm, and drove to Calhoun, Ga. Three years later, she enrolled Meagan. A year after that<br />
she brought Eric. Four years later, her youngest son, Joshua, moved into the dormitory at <strong>GCA</strong>.<br />
In 2011 when Josh graduated <strong>GCA</strong>, Shirley shared her incredulous testimony of how God faithfully<br />
provided a way for her four children to complete their education. It was a miraculous mingling of<br />
hard work on the part of Shirley and her children, a blessed blueberry patch that generated income,<br />
generous donors whose combined gifts made up the difference, and a mom whose faith never waivered.<br />
Talk about God’s miraculous multiplication methods!<br />
Cancer took this champion of faith in 2014 and she now rests, awaiting God’s call on that great day when the<br />
universe is witness to God’s final act of faithfulness and mercy. Her children, now grown, will someday share<br />
stories of their mother’s answered prayers and God’s faithfulness with their own children.<br />
At the beginning of 2013, the praise music program<br />
organized a Friday evening concert at the outdoor<br />
amphitheater. Hearts and voices were raised<br />
in praise to God and the presence of His<br />
Spirit was evident. Students, not<br />
wanting that night to end, joined<br />
hands around a campfire<br />
and continued singing<br />
together.<br />
Following that spiritually high<br />
evening, parents discovered that the<br />
sound system used was crudely put<br />
together with a great deal of effort<br />
and ingenuity. It would be difficult to<br />
have another outdoor concert using<br />
the same equipment. During the<br />
parents’ weekend brunch an appeal<br />

In March of 20<strong>17</strong>, Dylan Waters was part of the <strong>GCA</strong> Kenya mission trip group. This was made<br />
possible by the large number of people who donated toward his trip. Dylan, and his grandmother,<br />
sent letters to friends, family and church members. Dylan’s father is a pastor, and both sets<br />
of Dylan’s grandparents are evangelists. Their letters reached many old friends. In total, 45<br />
people contributed (between $10 and $750 each) and Dylan met his goal, making a significant<br />
difference in his life.<br />
Only a freshman at the time, it was a big jump for Dylan’s first mission trip experience to take<br />
place in Africa. Asked why he wanted to go, Dylan says “I love to help people.” He not only<br />
was able to help others, but his trip to Kenya influenced his own life. “I was able to see how<br />
other people live, and learn what their world view is, and how they see God.”<br />
Dylan comes from a mission-minded family. His great-grandfather was a missionary in China. Dylan’s<br />
mother served in Yap, and her father served in the Phillipines. This strong model of service in his ancestry<br />
has helped to feed Dylan’s passion to go into mission work as well. “I’ve thought about it as a career. I’ve<br />
also thought about getting a medical degree so that I can go on short-term mission trips with schools like <strong>GCA</strong><br />
that need medical workers to be part of their team.”<br />
Dylan just returned from the mission trip to Ft. Myers, FL, for hurricane relief, and plans to go to Peru in the spring.<br />
Gifts that may seem small significantly impacted Dylan, and Dylan is impacting the world!<br />
families were enough to purchase a brand new sound system appropriate for outdoor events.<br />
Since then there have been many outdoor concerts that have blessed <strong>GCA</strong> students. Hearts<br />
and lives have been moved to unknown measures. It is moments like those in the<br />
atmosphere of a Friday night vespers, raising your voice in song up to the stars while<br />
you hold on to a friend’s hand, that stay with you and live in your heart forever.<br />
The donations of these families were not enormous -- except in impact. For<br />
every life touched during these concerts there is a ripple effect. Only<br />
in heaven will God reveal how he multiplied the gifts they gave.<br />

“Thank you” is just not adequate for what you offer<br />
students, like me, at <strong>GCA</strong>. It was always my dream<br />
to come to school at <strong>GCA</strong>, but when it came time to<br />
sign up for academy my family could not afford it.<br />
Without you, I would not be here and I would not have<br />
the relationship with God that I have now, because<br />
of the leaders and atmosphere <strong>GCA</strong> provides. I am<br />
indebted to you for that. I will do my best not to let<br />
your generosity, which is something I could never<br />
repay, be in vain. Words are cheap, so the best way I<br />
can show my sincere gratefulness for you, is to make<br />
the most of the opportunity you have given me. I pray<br />
that God will bless you for your giving hearts, and for<br />
all the blessings you bestow upon students like me!<br />

STAFF UPDATES<br />
Pictured left to right: Jeanne Hartwell, Aaron Haldeman, and Jodi Steele<br />
God is multiplying our staff, and we have added three new positions in the past year.<br />
Aaron Haldeman joined us in January to assist Tom Sterndale in maintenance. Aaron maintains staff housing and<br />
all heating, ventilation and air conditioning units. Aaron was born and raised in Mt. Vernon, Ohio where he also attended<br />
academy. He came to <strong>GCA</strong> after twelve years of working at Cohutta Springs Conference Center. Aaron feels the Holy<br />
Spirit guided his decision to join the <strong>GCA</strong> staff. “I have a desire to use the abilities God supplied me with to serve wherever<br />
He needs me.” Aaron’s wife, Jennifer works for the Georgia-Cumberland Conference finance department. They have a<br />
two-year old son, Wilson, who is the light of their life.<br />
Jodi Steele came aboard in February as the marketing and recruiting assistant. Jodi has responsibilities in the Enrollment<br />
Services Office, and does marketing for the school. She grew up in Collegedale, TN and graduated from Southern Adventist<br />
University (SAU) with an undergraduate degree in public relations and master’s degree in school counseling. Prior to <strong>GCA</strong>,<br />
Jodi worked in corporate public relations, as well as for the public school system. Jodi accepted this new position because<br />
she loves the mission and spiritual atmosphere of <strong>GCA</strong>, and says she “finds working with, and mentoring, young people to<br />
be extremely rewarding.” Jodi is married to David Steele, ’93, an architect in the Atlanta area.<br />
Jeanne Hartwell is the newest addition to the <strong>GCA</strong> staff, and started in August. Jeanne has been hired to coordinate<br />
the new <strong>GCA</strong> Scholars program. She will be crafting and facilitating a new program for <strong>GCA</strong> students with GPA’s of<br />
3.7 or higher and/or whose test scores are in the top percentages for the nation. Her goal is to provide opportunities for<br />
experiences that will enhance students’ attractiveness to colleges, information on how to find scholarships, and instruction on<br />
how to be better prepared to enter college on scholastic, social and spiritual levels. She will also coordinate job shadowing<br />
opportunities. Jeanne graduated from SAU with a degree in English. Her past work experience includes teaching college<br />
composition, editor, and pastoring. Most recently she was the Associate Ministerial Director and Family Ministries Director<br />
for the Pennsylvania Conference. Jeanne’s husband, Ray, works for the Georgia-Cumberland Conference as Director of<br />
Trust Services and Stewardship. They have two children, Josh and Abby, and one granddaughter, Skye.<br />
Marty Sutton, assistant principal, recently accepted the position of principal for Madison Campus Elementary School.<br />
“<strong>GCA</strong> has been a major part of my life since 2010, and I will miss it and each of you. <strong>GCA</strong> is a major reason for my boys’<br />
success, and I know that I am leaving [my daughter] Jensen in capable hands because <strong>GCA</strong> is providing the same for her.”<br />
Marty’s transition occurred in October.<br />

HURRICANE<br />
VICTIMS<br />
On Monday, September 18 a group of 39 students and<br />
staff made their way to Florida – but for the first time in<br />
<strong>GCA</strong>’s history, this Florida trip was not for fun at the beaches<br />
or amusements parks. This group was headed to Ft. Myers to<br />
assist those who suffered damage to their homes when Irma<br />
hit their area as a category 3 hurricane on September 10.<br />
They braved the heat, and tolerated the stench of sewage<br />
which had flooded the area, to clear debris from yards, remove<br />
drywall and to pull damaged contents from houses to the street.<br />
They also helped distribute water, food and supplies.<br />
Also a first since the year 2000, <strong>GCA</strong> will not be sending a<br />
group to Appalachia for a mission trip. According to Chaplain<br />
Josh Woods, “With the urgent needs in Florida and Texas so<br />
great this year we felt that is where we should be, but we plan<br />
to return to Appalachia in 2018.”<br />

FUNDS RAISED<br />
BY GOLF TOURNAMENT<br />
Throughout my years in and around the Georgia-<br />
Cumberland Academy campus, it always held a special<br />
place in my heart. Listening to my older brothers share<br />
fond memories of their high school experience, I knew I<br />
wanted to make some of my own. Sadly, my parents went<br />
through a few financial struggles and were not sure if I<br />
could attend. But God knew this was the school for me<br />
and placed many people in my life to help my situation; a<br />
majority of those people are the generous donors of the<br />
worthy student program. Without their help, I would not<br />
be the person I am today. <strong>GCA</strong> has grown me in every<br />
way and allowed endless opportunities for my future. I<br />
could not even begin to express my gratitude towards<br />
this program and what it has done, not only for myself,<br />
but for my family & friends. With the support I have<br />
experienced through this program, I can confidently<br />
say <strong>GCA</strong> is my home.<br />
