Growing Great Kids for 30 Years!

Grapevine Christian School has been Growing Great Kids for 30 Years! We are celebrating by incorporating the Fruit of the Spirit into our school year. Each month, we will focus on a Fruit of the Spirit, with our goal being that each child will leave this school year knowing the fruits. Do you know the Fruits? Galatians 5:22-23 tells us " 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law."
