“I’m excited to join Maranatha Christian Academy as athletic director and partner with our students, coaches, parents and staff as we continue building on the strong tradition of excellence at MCA. The pride, tradition and commitment to Christ at Maranatha are the things I’m excited to help grow and strengthen. Philippians 4:13 has always been an important verse in my life: ‘I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength.’” - Kris Henry
