CORE VALUES
LOVE FOR SIMPLICITY
“The law of the Lord is perfect, reviving the soul; the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple.”(Psalm 19:7) We value the essentials in life. We are trained to distinguish and yearn only for what is true, the good and the beautiful. Nothing else. We develop the skill to simplify and do away with the unnecessary, pointless and redundant so that only the essential, indispensable and vital may speak. We value contentment more than personal happiness, for we believe that one can never be happy if one is never content. We promote simple living and hard work and We keep away from pomp, showiness, pageantry and externalities. We prefer genuineness, substance, accuracy and certainty.
INTEGRITY IN LIFE
You have been told, O man, what is good, and what the LORD requires of you: Only to do right and to love goodness, and to walk humbly with your God. (Micah 6:8) We uphold integrity of life, honesty, decency, accountability, morality, professionalism and commitment. We say what we mean and mean what we say. We promote honesty; by this we build the trust of all. keeping one’s word
FAMILY ORIENTED
“He who is a friend is always a friend, and a brother is born for the time of stress.” (Proverbs 17:17) We value family life. We promote life and we empower, nurture and look after each other. We cherish each other as family members. Friends come and go, but family sticks with you through the hardest of times.
ENDURING EXCELLENCE
“Be perfect, just as your heavenly Father is perfect.” (Matthew 5:48) We venture to attain excellence according to what God has designed for each of us individually. We are devoted to the highest level of performance in everything we do.
