It's Not Too Late to Pledge!


Thanks to everyone who's already submitted their 2026 pledge. ACC's rich legacy of generosity continues! If you still haven't turned in your pledge card, please mail it to the church office, bring it on Sunday, or share your commitment online at allisonville.org/pledge.

Buddy Bags Thanksgiving & Winter Breaks - Thank You!


Thank you for your generosity in helping to fill the Buddy Bags for Clearwater Elementary,

Eastwood Middle School, and Northview Middle School. We were able to provide 180 bags of food to these three schools for students to take home for their Thanksgiving and Winter breaks.


Because of you, these students can enjoy their breaks without wondering if they will eat that day.

Join us for Blue Christmas on Wednesday, December 3rd. We'll have a casserole pitch-in at 6pm. Bring a casserole of any kind, and stay for worship at 7pm. This worship is especially for those who are seeking extra comfort and a place to lament during this season.
