JUNETEENTH — A significant day in American history commemorating the moment many enslaved people finally received the news of their freedom. Today, we remember, reflect, honor, and celebrate the resilience and hope of those who endured.

As we recognize this important day, we are also reminded of the ultimate freedom found in Christ. Through Him, we are set free from sin and given new life.

“So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.” — John 8:36

“It is for freedom that Christ has set us free.” — Galatians 5:1

May we never take either freedom or the sacrifices made to secure it for granted.

Our first session is ONE WEEK AWAY! Sign up with the link in our bio or our website – abu.edu. We cannot wait to see all of our incoming Patriots! 

Our first session is coming up soon. Be sure to get signed up for New Student Orientation!
