Anchor Academy

Strong in the Lord.

About Us

Anchor Academy is a faith based ministry reaching out to high risk young men between the ages of 17-24. The Academy is located in the rural cotton country of S.E. Missouri 12 miles from Sikeston and 30 miles from Cape Girardeau.

We provide a place for young men to get their lives on track and become responsible, productive citizens. Using a structured environment, we focus on building character, respect for authority, spiritual growth, work ethic, establishing goals, and reconciling family relationships. We work on changing the outside, while God changes the heart. Scripture memorization and daily chapel services help provide each young man with a solid foundation.

Student Testimonials

“The Anchor has taught me the value of hard work. It taught me that no matter how difficult or monotonous the task to press on. If there is no struggle, there is no progress.” ~Kyle, 19

Student Testimonials

“Before I came to the Anchor, I was pretty satisfied with how good a person I thought I was. The Anchor drastically changed that view. The preaching, teaching, interaction with other guys, and the staff, etc.., brought all my flaws and problems to the surface. With the power of God, I have been able to slowly overcome these bumps in the road. I’m so glad God directed me in making the decision to enroll in the Anchor Academy. Praise God from whom all blessings flow.” ~Christian, 19

Student Testimonials

“I’ve been to another program before this and it was $30,000 to stay five months. That program was not based on God so it didn’t do much to help me. The Anchor is a place where I can be myself and learn about myself to where I can fix the things i need to work on. Since I’ve been here, God has done a lot of work in my life and I am very thankful to come to Anchor Academy because I know all of the Staff here care about us.” ~Drew, 16
