One day while visiting a local jail, Chrissy noticed a 10 year old boy confined in the adjacent cell. The boy had been detained for 2 days simply for wandering the streets after midnight! The jailer allowed her to take the boy to visit the POC children's home. Although little Jimmy expressed the desire to live in the children's home, his mother did not agree.

As a consequence of that experience Chrissy prayed for the Lord to reveal how she could reach children such as Jimmy, who were stuck in the cycle of poverty. Remembering the 'Tearfund' statement she read, "You can give a child a fish and feed him for a day, teach him to fish and you can feed him for a lifetime.", she then had a vision for starting a Christian school free of charge for the local community.

By starting a Christian school, it gave the opportunity to reach children from the age of four to eighteen with the gospel whilst also providing them with the high standard of education that ACE (Accelerated Christian Education) offers. There are now over 110 students attending the pre-school, elementary, and high schools. There are also 13 members of staff headed by Marivic Perez.

Since the school began in 1987, many students have since graduated, and have been given the opportunity to become professionals. Some have become teachers of POC, one is now a college lecturer, another is a mechanic, others have gone on to various other professions.
