As an admissions specialist, Angie St. Pierre sees how spiritual formation begins with the very first interaction, ensuring that Christ is central in every aspect of the school experience. She joins Jerry Nelson to discuss how every moment with parents and students is treated as a ministry opportunity, with a focus on building relationships and pointing families toward Christ—even if they don’t ultimately enroll.

Angie St. Pierre is an Admissions Specialist at Calvary Christian Academy (FL), the largest private Christian school in the continental United States.
