Grace & Knowledge

Blessing was raised in a Christian school with daily exposure to the Word of God. She attributes her hope, life, confidence and salvation to this upbringing. Jackson saw firsthand the attitude of the people of his country, and he observed that it is the children who suffer in an ‘every man for himself’ culture. This sparked a long-term dream to open a Christian school in their village, which sits on the Muslim-Christian border of the country.

In late 2010, Jackson and Blessing prayed God would prepare the way for them to receive their first students. One year later, they opened the doors to Grace & Knowledge Academy. They now have more than 200 students enrolled in Grace & Knowledge Academy and High School and attending their weekly Bible Club. In 2014, Jackson completed his Ph.D. from Dallas Theological Seminary, and in October, they moved back home to Nigeria with their daughter, Mayo.
