It's Monday Knights! The basketball season is 3/4 finished - already?! Our teams are performing well and so thankful to be back on the basketball court again!

Our senior boys team is first in their league and the senior girls team are fighting to stay in the top 3 before playoffs begin. Way to go Knights! #mondayknights #weareallacs

"Today, I am once again asking you to rise to this latest challenge. Perhaps the themes of last year are worth repeating here. Let's be gentle with ourselves and gracious with others. Let's take one step forward to the next. Let's keep community together. Let's keep trust in one another and ultimately in our God, our strong tower." Julius Siebenga, executive director, shares thoughts and encouragement for today. #weareallacs

Another shout out to our grade 12 athletes! The grade 12 boys on the Knights soccer team stepped up to the goal of building a better soccer program at ACS this year. Even without the motivation of games and tournaments, these boys gave every effort to develop skills and learn team systems. Their hard work will pay off, as they continue to enjoy this sport for the rest of their lives. The rest of the team is blessed to have them lead so strongly, model hard work, and be dedicated to the vision that the good news of Jesus Christ can be lived out through the beautiful game. Congratulations soccer grads! #goknights #weareallacs #mondayknights
