CHRIST-Centered
At ACF, you're not just attending meetings — you're becoming part of a spiritual family. Through Bible studies and prayer groups, we help students grow in their relationship with Christ while building authentic friendships.
CAMPUS CONNECTION
We’re present on college campuses across the Carolinas, creating welcoming spaces where students can ask deep questions, share life experiences, and explore faith together in a judgment-free environment rooted in Scripture.
LEADERSHIP & SERVICE
ACF gives students the opportunity to lead with purpose. From planning events to leading studies and serving others on and off campus, members develop confidence, grow spiritually, and become change-makers in their communities.
