On a warm evening filled with gratitude and celebration, the Asheville Pisgah Christian School (APCS) community gathered August 7, 2025, for a long-anticipated open house and gymnasium dedication.
The event began at 6 p.m. with families, students, and church members gathering under a festive balloon arch to take photos before entering the new gymnasium. For many, it was their first time seeing the completed space, and the excitement was tangible.
As attendees formed a circle around the gym, Danny Collins and Megan Robertson led the group in singing last year’s school theme song, “Christ Is Our Firm Foundation,” setting a spiritual tone for the evening. Artim (Art) Dmytriyev, pastor, followed with a bilingual welcome and heartfelt prayer, offering words of unity and thanks.
Patrick Williams, pastor, shared a message highlighting the gym’s purpose — not just as a place to play, but as a sanctuary to build relationships and worship God. Marco Quarteroli, pastor, then offered a powerful prayer of dedication, inviting God’s blessing over the space and all who would gather there.
Following the dedication, students led attendees on a tour through the school, showcasing both updated and original classrooms. Each guest received a coupon for a New Moon Donut, a special treat provided by Ronnie and Courtney Jimenez’s donut truck.
The evening served as more than just a building dedication. It was a joyful opportunity to reconnect, make new friends, and celebrate God’s continued blessings over APCS.
“This building is more than brick and mortar,” said one parent. “It’s a symbol of what God is doing through this school and this community.”
With hearts full of praise, the APCS family looks forward to the many memories and ministries that will take place in their new space.
“For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ,” 1 Corinthians 3:11 NIV.
