A prayer – saturated school, rooted in faith, relationships, and real life preparation.
Every child deserves to be known, nurtured, and prepared for real life. A Prayer Away Christian Academy exists because too many students are asked to fit into systems that overlook their faith, individuality, and real-world needs.
Our scholars are the heart of this story. They are curious, capable, and full of God-given potential. They deserve a learning environment where prayer is woven into daily life, where small class sizes allow for personal attention, and where LIFE-skills are taught alongside strong academics.
We partner with families to disciple scholars—not just educate them—helping each child grow spiritually, academically, and practically so they are prepared for whatever God calls them to next.
The ultimate goal of A Prayer Away Christian Academy is to raise scholars who know Christ, know how to pray, and confidently walk in their God-given purpose. We aim to equip students academically, spiritually, and practically—teaching them LIFE-skills, strong character, and daily habits of prayer that anchor them for a lifetime.
Our desire is to shape young men and women who are grounded in the Word, saturated in prayer, excellent in learning, and prepared to thrive in their families, churches, and communities.
Prayer is woven into daily learning, relationships, and decision-making.
Scholars are known by name and supported through individualized attention.
Multi-age learning guided by mentors who prioritize relationships and growth.
Financial literacy, responsibility, and real-world readiness are part of learning.
Educating students academically, spiritually, and practically to always pray and never give up
Luke 18:1
An educational center of prayer that draws scholars closer to God.
Dear Families,
Thank you for taking the time to learn more about A Prayer Away Christian Academy. Whether you are just beginning to explore educational options or are prayerfully discerning the next step for your child, please know that you are welcome here.
APACA was founded out of a deep conviction that children need more than academics alone. They need prayer, purpose, guidance, and relationships that reinforce what families are teaching at home. Our desire is to come alongside parents—especially those carrying heavy responsibilities—to provide a safe, prayer-saturated environment where scholars are known, nurtured, and prepared for real life.
At our school, prayer is not an event; it is a way of life. We believe scholars should learn how to pray with confidence, think critically with wisdom, and grow in character and LIFE-skills that will serve them well beyond the classroom. Every decision we make is guided by what is best for the child and how we can support the family as true partners.
Choosing a school is an important decision, and we take that responsibility seriously. I look forward to meeting you, hearing your story, and discerning together whether A Prayer Away Christian Academy is the right fit for your family.
Hope to see you soon,
Dr. Marshall L. Morris
Head of School

Litchfield Christian School has been such a beautiful blessing to our family. LCS is a Christ-centered school that challenges students academically, nurtures their creativity, promotes a positive learning environment, and contributes to their spiritual growth. LCS is very supportive, and they encourage their students and their families. Our daughter came into LCS completely broken and empty. Public school had taken a drastic toll on her mental health. She had pleaded with us for over a year to homeschool her. We were at a loss. Our daughter is a very social person, and we knew she needed more. We decided to check out LCS as an alternative. From the very moment we stepped inside LCS, we could see and feel the genuine love. EVERYONE felt as if they belonged. Before our day of observing was over, she had asked if she could please come to LCS. She was smiling and said this place is my kind of place. It's definitely been just that!
Today she is thriving, and she is truly enjoying herself. She loves to go to school, and she loves all of the teachers. She has made good friends and is blossoming in all areas of life. She's even started singing on stage during chapel. This has been the best decision we could have ever made as parents for our daughter. We are incredibly thankful for this opportunity in our hometown, and we truly appreciate that LCS offers grades K-12. How blessed we are to be a part of Litchfield Christian School. We look forward to many more amazing years here.
