Jesus wins. And on behalf of Auburn Community Church, I want to say a huge thank you to all of the first responders and the health care workers and the doctors and the nurses who are on the front lines caring for people during this pandemic. You are so loved by ACC and you are so appreciated. Some of you

have literally been risking your lives to help people and it does not go unnoticed. We are

praying for you and we hope that Ashley's story is such an encouragement that God is moving

in the midst of such a dark season and circumstance.

Jesus is getting glory through this, and we rejoice that we have people in our church like

Ashley who are shining the light in the darkness.

watched how our church family has said loud and clear that in the midst of a global pandemic,

we are going to be the church by giving generously. And so the ways to give are on the

screen right now. You can give on Venmo at Auburn Community Church. You can give online. You can send

checks over to 323 Airport Road. And let's continue to be the church God has called us to be

during this time. What's crazy about this moment is that today,

Sunday, May 3rd, we were supposed to be celebrating our graduating seniors. This was going to be

graduation weekend for so many people in the life of our church. And I know that this season has

disoriented everybody

in different ways, but it kills me

that such an incredible senior class
