How did the Academy begin?
A. The Richard Wurmbrand Christian Academy was born out of the vision of one woman who was greatly influenced by the sacrificial lives of Pastor Richard and Sabina Wurmbrand. Liliana Romaniuc was an educator, a Romanian, and a Christian. She was the first person who dared to think about having a Christian school the city of Iasi, Romania. A few years after the fall of communism in Romania in 1989, Liliana and a small group of dedicated, Christian teachers started meeting together with the idea of opening a Christian school in Iasi, Romania. For three years they prayed and sought Gods direction and provision as they began to design a philosophy of education for a Christian school in the context of their Romanian culture. As a result, the Richard Wurmbrand Christian Academy was founded in September of 1995.
