AAA Students Offer Comfort to Community

No one knew just how different student week of prayer was going to look at Auburn Adventist Academy this school year. In the middle of the week, school administrators chose to close the campus and transition to a temporary online distance learning in a precautionary move amid regional concerns of the new coronavirus. As they gathered for our last day together for awhile, the students and staff incirculed the church, lifting praise to God.

Though their week of prayer was interrupted, student leaders rose to the challenge. Sophomore student leader Jalen Creed said, “Hey, instead of this being a week of prayer, we can turn it into a month of prayer.”

So that's what Auburn students did.

The campus ministry team, comprised of 25 students representing all four grades, is writing and sending daily devotionals to their peers during this time of online learning. Students and staff receive a personal and uplifting devotional thought each day and we are excited to be able to share those thoughts with you too!

Student devotionals will be posted on the Tidings blog every morning.
