ACSI Day of Prayer

One of our greatest partnerships is with one of our accrediting bodies, The Association of Christian Schools International. Each year, ACSI hosts its Annual Day of Prayer, an event that advances Christ-centered education by advocating through prayer. As Christians, prayer is one of the most important things that we can do. According to 1 John 5:15, “This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, He hears us.”

This year, the theme for the ACSI Day of Prayer is Abide. The theme verse is John 15:4-5, where Jesus says, “Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.” Jesus’ words in John 15 clearly describe the essence of the relationship between the Lord and His people. As a branch relies on the vine as its source of life, followers of Jesus must be fully dependent on the Lord, as He is the source of all life, ministry, and fruitfulness. Jesus’ call to abide means that we are to remain in a state of dependence and connectedness to Him, for apart from Him we can do nothing. 

The ACSI Day of Prayer is scheduled for Tuesday, March 4. On this special day, each division has planned prayer activities throughout the day, including opening each period of the day with a Bible verse. There will also be designated places on campus for students to gather and pray. We ask that you join us on March 4 to pray for our students, school community, and faculty & staff.

We are so grateful for the power of prayer in our school community. When we join together in prayer, there is nothing that our Royal Nation can’t accomplish! We look forward to praying along with you on Tuesday, March 4.
