Okay, did you know you can actually go UNDER the Lincoln Memorial now?! 👀

The brand-new Lincoln Memorial Undercroft gives you a completely different perspective on one of DC’s most iconic landmarks, with interactive exhibits and a look at the massive foundation underneath the memorial.

Such a cool new addition to a classic DC stop!

This morning, students across the nation gathered at “See You At The Pole” See You at the Pole - an initiative for students to meet at their school’s flagpole before school starts to join with their peers as believers in prayer.

We were so encouraged to witness this take place in person, and to see the countless photos and stories from our school partners across the states who joined in prayer today.
👉 If YOU were at at your school, let us know in the comments so we can celebrate with you! ❤️

At ACTS, we believe that change starts with ordinary individuals whose everyday choices make an extraordinary difference. We know that prayer has power, and makes an eternal difference. The faithfulness of the students gathered today absolutely makes an impact - not only in their hearts and lives, but in their schools and communities as others witness what their personal faith means to them.

We are so proud of the next generation of world changers standing boldly in their faith, and are praying for change along with each of these students who gathered today.

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:6-7

It’s been 25 years.

Many of us remember exactly where we were when we heard the news.

Many of us only know what the world has looked like in the aftermath of this unthinkable national tragedy.

For some, they remember not just the news, but they remember the feeling of the impact. The smoke. The sirens. The tears. The terror.

At ACTS, one of our staff members, Jay, remembers just that. Here’s his story:

“This is the only picture I have of my morning in Arlington National Cemetery on 9/11/01.  My job for the past 36 years has been working for American Christian Tours. A large part of that job has been in the role of a tour guide - leading mostly student groups on historical tours.

I had a group of 12th grade students from Redding, California that had just arrived the night before.  It was a beautiful morning.  We were scheduled to visit Arlington National Cemetery and lay a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknowns at 10 am.

Who would know that at 9:37 am, American Airlines flight 77 -
hijacked by terrorists from Dulles Airport, would slam into the Pentagon killing 125 at the Pentagon and 59 aboard the flight?

As we were walking up the hill towards the Tomb the plane roared in front of us and slammed into the Pentagon below us. The explosion rocked the ground and the sound was incredible.  We all hit the ground.  As we approached the Tomb, a guard ordered us to evacuate the cemetery immediately.  

On the way back down to the entrance, as hundreds of sirens wailed, I stopped and took a picture of Joey (he was training with me to be a tour guide).  You can see the smoke billowing up from the Pentagon behind him.  The Pentagon was just about half a mile or so from where we were.

So many memories of that day.  A day that would change our nation forever.  A day in my mind that would take away a piece of America that we will never know again.

Today on this 25th Anniversary my heart and mind are filled with so many emotions.  I pray for our nation, our people, those that lost loved ones, and against the hate and division.”

This one is worth making a stop to see. 🇺🇸

The National Military Monument is temporarily installed at the Lincoln Memorial, honoring the millions of Americans who have served.

You can even search for the name of a family member or friend who served and see their name displayed on the memorial. ❤️

It’s only here through November 12, so add it to your DC list while you can!

🎒📚 for many of us today...
a new School Year begins! ✨🎉

As classrooms come back to life and a new year of learning begins, we’re praying for students and educators alike - for the teachers who inspire curiosity, the students who are ready to discover something new, and the school communities that make learning a collaborative adventure. ❤️

To our school and travel partners: we’re cheering you on! May this year bring meaningful lessons, new friendships, growing confidence, and plenty of moments that remind us just how exciting it is to learn, explore, and see the world with fresh eyes. And, of course, we’re already looking forward to the adventures and educational experiences we’ll share with you along the way! 🌎 🚌 😉

🙏 Join us in our prayer over this school year:

Lord, we pray over our schools as they begin a new year. Give students curious minds, courageous hearts, and a desire to learn and grow. Give educators wisdom, patience, creativity, and renewed energy as they guide and encourage the next generation. Protect every student, teacher, and school community, and fill their year with peace, joy, meaningful relationships, and opportunities to discover Your world and the wonder within it. May this be a year of growth, purpose, and unforgettable moments that all draw us closer to You. 🙏

Here’s to a new year of learning, discovery, and adventures ahead! 💙
