ACCA!

Adam's County Christian Academy
 
 
When we met the students at ACCA (Adams County Christian Academy), we knew it was going to be a great time. We fell in love with the students and faculty, and the rest of the week was a memorable experience. We started the day with some fun cheers and a game of, “Never Have I Ever.” It was fun to see the students already start to relax and get comfortable with the setting. Lawrence shared the first, “Be4Real” about dropping our water lines and being authentic with God and with one another. T.J followed up with a challenge to the students to clear the couch from their hearts and place God on the throne of their hearts. The rest of the day we got to hang out with the students in their classes. In English class;T.J. and Lawrence were able to drop their own waterlines and share their life experiences with the students.

 
 
Our team was hosted by the Hart family, and we were so blessed to see a godly family in action. All us guys can admit the three boys are servants and hard workers, but sadly they lack in dodgeball skills :). We enjoyed our time at their house and look forward to seeing them again.

 
The next day at ACCA, Walk -the-Line was again a powerful ministry tool that the Lord has provided. The school was transformed by the transparency displayed.

 
 
 
During the open mic time, the following day, students and faculty confessed to harboring bitterness and were able to forgive. The students realized that they never walk alone in life. Not only is God always with them, but they now realize that they have a Christian body of community. A community that faces the same trials and can join with them on their journey in life.

 
 
Another highlight was Friday morning worship through music. We were told students didn’t like to sing out loud, and we challenged the leaders of the worship team to share how their hearts were touched by the songs we prepared to sing. It was amazing to see the change in students as they realized that they were offering praise to God. As a team we continue to be in awe of the work God is doing through us. ACCA is a Christian school set ablaze for God’s glory, so watch out, because they are going to impact the world for Jesus Christ!
