International Students
It honestly was one of the best things for our family and we now have a ‘bonus’ kid! Maria not only came to FCS, but she was able to hear the Gospel, accept Christ, and is now in her senior year in college. Hosting an international student will be life changing in the BEST ways possible.
The Huskey Family
After some time of warming up to each other, we are so thankful we said ‘yes!’ Rebecca became our bonus daughter, our son’s sister, and her parents an extension of our family across the globe in China. She’s in college now and is still a blessing to us as part of our family!
The Baldwin Family
Friendship Christian School began its International Student Program (ISP) in 2011, and has hosted nearly 50 international students from numerous countries like China, Vietnam, Colombia, Brazil, Korea, Japan, the UAE, and the Congo.
The ISP allows qualified international students to study at FCS while allowing local students to experience diverse cultures. The program aims to promote cross-cultural learning and understanding of global missions, encouraging students to recognize God’s work worldwide.

Host Families – Join the Adventure!
Host families provide international students with a “home away from home,” offering a wonderful opportunity to minister to and mutually learn from each other’s cultures. FCS screens, trains, and supports international students, preferably placing them with Christian host families for the academic year.
