Since 2010 ACS has partnered with our sister school, Centro de Fe, located in the centre of Managua, Nicaragua.
OUR TEAMS OF STAFF AND STUDENTS connect with those of our sister school through a unique cultural service-learning exchange that has deeply impacted the lives of all involved. Our students become keen discoverers of Nicaraguan culture, exploring how God is at work in lives vastly different than our own. Construction projects, sports, playing games, and worshipping together provide beautiful opportunities to make powerful connections in spite of the language barrier.

“The Nicaragua Trip was simply a life changing experience. I’ve been to many other countries for tourist purposes, but a trip with the goal of building relationships was beyond astonishing. This trip will be with my heart forever.”

LASTING CONNECTIONS
The Mural Project
Since 2013, Centro de Fe and ACS students and staff have been painting a mural panel on the school walls as as a representation of our partnership over the many years. Each year, Centro de Fe and ACS students and staff add their names to the mural memorializing the transformative connection and time God had gifted us that year. This means that everyday Centro de Fe students and staff are visually reminded of the connection we all have as brothers and sisters in Christ. As you view some of our murals, take a moment to give thanks for the many ways the God has tended this connection and blessed it to flourish so beautifully.
2024 NICARAGUA TRIP
“My trip to Nicaragua was an experience I will never forget. Experiencing the vibrant culture, steadfast love, and overwhelming joy of the Nicaraguan people and Centro de Fe was incredible and life changing. What a joy it was to worship with other members of the global church; we are so blessed to serve a God who transcends every nation, tribe, and tongue!”
