A Word From Pastor Shirley
New Manna Christian School. Each word is important to us. School reminds us that a strong academic program is a necessity for our students to survive in this 21st century. Secondly, the word “Christian” reminds us that we strive to see things through the lens of the Holy Scriptures, and that we strive to make sure every student that passes through our doors comes to a saving knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ. The name New Manna reminds us that we must continually consider the importance of our testimony in the eyes of the citizens of Marion and McDowell County.
We truly hope to be the kind of institution that brings pleasure and glory to God, and is a blessing and help to the families that God sees fit to allow us to serve. We are "serving the Lord with gladness.” God bless.
Pastor Tony Shirley, Lam. 3:22
