From Coatesville to Belize: Sharing God’s Love

Our recent Missions Chapel was a powerful time of testimony and encouragement! Mr. David Genter led the chapel, setting the tone for the morning. A slideshow of photos from the recent missions trips was shared, giving students a glimpse into the incredible work God is doing through our teams.

Mr. George Dickson spoke about the trip to Coatesville, PA and introduced several Middle School students who shared what the experience meant to them.

Mr. Genter then introduced our High School missions team that served in Belize. A few high school students shared moving stories of their time there—how the children remembered them, and how joyful and full of faith the kids were, even in the face of hardship.

Each student’s testimony reminded us that going on a missions trip is more than just serving—it’s about spreading God’s love and being changed in the process. Many of our students encouraged their peers to consider going, saying it’s a life-changing experience. Here are some photos from the chapel!

The Missions Club Raised $6,000 from Pumpkin Run

High School Missions Club students eagerly anticipate their upcoming missions trip to Belize during Easter Break, where they aim to serve as the hands and feet of Jesus. The club successfully raised over $6,000 by providing parking on the ACS campus for attendees of the Pumpkin Run Car Show and Flea Market at Flemings Junkyard.

Currently, students are reaching out to family, friends, and local churches to seek financial and prayer support for their missions trips. The per-person cost for the Belize trip is $2,250. The club, under the guidance of Missions Club Advisor and faculty member Dave Genter, plans to participate in One Christmas Night’s live nativity to raise additional funds and organize spring fundraisers, including a car wash and family skate night.

Students embarking on the Belize missions trip will engage in various service activities, such as helping the elderly with home repairs, evangelism, working with local teens, and leading a Vacation Bible School at a local church.
