This Sunday, Amherst Christian Academy will be honoring Creekside Assembly of God for 50 years of faithful ministry, sacrifice, prayer, and investment into generations of students and families through Christian education.

We would love for our ACA families, alumni, church family, and community to join us for this special service as we celebrate all God has done together through the years.

This Sunday is something very special to us. ❤️

Amherst Christian Academy will be hosting a special service to honor and thank Creekside Assembly of God, Amherst NY for 50 years of faithful, sacrificial ministry through Christian education.

So many lives have been impacted because a church chose to invest in children, families, and the truth of God’s Word year after year. This service is simply our way of saying thank you.

Our students will be leading worship, special guests will be sharing memories, and we’ll be looking back on all God has done through the years together.

📍 Sunday, May 24th
⏰ 10:00 AM
📍 Creekside Assembly of God

Reception to follow.

Whether you’ve been part of ACA for decades or just recently connected with the ministry, we would truly love to celebrate with you.

Not every victory starts with a full team. Sometimes it starts with one student willing to show up, represent well, and give it everything she has.

With cross country coming to an end indefinitely for our league, the NFCAA hosted a special Cross Country Send Off Meet — serving as the final league race and send-off for the sport.

ACA was proudly represented by Kiera Young.

Though Kiera didn’t even run cross country last year, she stepped up and competed in the Varsity Girls Race against five other runners… and brought home GOLD for ACA! 🥇

First place goes to…
KIERA YOUNG!

We are so proud of her resilience, determination, and willingness to represent Amherst Christian Academy Athletics so well.

What a memorable way to close out an era for league cross country competition.

Congratulations, Kiera! Panther Nation is cheering you on! 🖤💛

What a year.

This athletic year marked the beginning of something new for ACA Athletics—and across every team, we watched it take shape. Growth. Grit. Teamwork. A willingness to step up, compete, and represent ACA well.

We are incredibly proud of every athlete who gave their all, every coach who poured into these teams, and every supporter who showed up, encouraged, and stood behind this program.

This wasn’t just about the games.
It was about building something that will last.

A culture.
A standard.
A foundation.

And if this athletic year is any indication… the future of ACA Athletics is bright.

Stay tuned right here for updates, announcements, and what’s ahead for ACA Athletics.

Thank you for being part of it. 🐾

We’re thankful for the teachers who pour into our students - both in the classroom and at home 💛

“Let the little children come to me…” — Matthew 19:14

At ACA Athletics, we’re blessed with athletes who are being shaped not just on the field, but in their faith, their character, and their daily lives. From dedicated school teachers to faithful parents leading at home, it all matters.

Grateful for every teacher investing in the next generation. 🐾

🍎 Teacher Appreciation Week 🍎

“The influence of a good teacher can never be erased.”

This week, we take time to honor the men and women who pour into our students day after day—teaching, guiding, correcting, encouraging, and pointing them toward truth.

At Amherst Christian Academy, our teachers do far more than educate… they invest in hearts, shape character, and help build a foundation that lasts a lifetime.
We are grateful for their faithfulness, their patience, and the calling God has placed on their lives.

Take a moment this week to thank a teacher who has made an impact. It matters more than you think.
