The ACSI Day of Prayer is an annual event that advances Christ-centered education by advocating through prayer. These past few school years have presented many unique challenges, but God has given our school communities the strength to overcome adversities and pursue new opportunities. We encourage you to join ACSI when we unite across the globe to pray for Christ-centered education next year on Tuesday, March 4, 2025.
This year’s theme for the ACSI Day of Prayer is “Abide.” In John 15:4-5, 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.
