New Year has come

Happy New Year! I hope that all of you have had the Joy to be with the Lord today. There is nothing like it to be in his word and read all of the many promises He makes to us. If not for His word that up lifts you each and every day, oh how easy it is to be hopeless. Are you suffering today for the troubles of this world or are you at peace knowing that God has us in His hand and will guide us through this time?  read more »

God is so GOOD! We had such a great response to all the areas needed to help with our Thanksgiving Dinner. Thanks to all of you. The outpouring of your service to the Lord was so great. Mrs. Harriet Newton taking care of the food and raising money and the list goes on. Thank you for your love of these students and giving them a meal that they enjoyed so much. The volunteers who serve with Acts 2 all year you made phone calls, picked up students and were table hosts we couldn't do it without you.  read more »

The Power of Words

"To sum up, all of you be harmonious, sympathetic, brotherly, kindhearted, and humble in spirit; not returning evil for evil or insult for insult, but giving a blessing instead; you were called for the very purpose that you might inherit a blessing." 1 Peter 3 8

This verse spoke volumes to me as I began memorizing chapter 3 of 1 Peter. Along with this I have been reading "The Power of a Spoken Blessing" by Bill Gothard. Sharing how a spoken blessing can effect and change a life for ever.  read more »

Scaremare

Scaremare was a fun night for all. We took 15 High School students on Saturday Oct.11 to Liberty University for there annual Scaremare. We adventured with the youth group from Cave Spring Baptist Church and had a blast. Some students wondered and some were concerned about what they were in for as we waited for around an hour and a half to go through the woods and then the house that the Liberty students set up.  read more »

Club Zion is Back

What a great time we all had with our Welcome Back dance party. There were over 125 students excited and ready to come back to Acts 2. Big thanks to all our volunteers that helped so much with driving and picking up students to serving drinks and snacks to getting information from new comers. The next couple of days at the schools all the students were talking about how much they enjoyed the time together at Acts 2.  read more »

On Sept. 20 of last year, an estimated 20,000 people from out of town marched in the streets of the community.  read more »
