The Au Sable Community Life at Au Sable is that of a supportive Christian community. Students, staff, faculty, and families share in learning, recreation, and worship. Each course is itself an integrated whole of learning, devotions, and recreation. The courses, taken together with individual devotions, study, and community activities, form the integrated whole that is Au Sable.
Students engage in fun, study and recreation after classes.
Late evening is a time when students often gather in the lodge for discussions over popcorn and hot chocolate. Faculty-student interaction is important at Au Sable. Faculty often work with and assist students outside of class and join the students for many meals, recreation, and Sunday evening vesper services. Together in the field they explore and share the order and wonder of the natural world, as fellow believers excited and awed at a world which proclaims the glory of God. And when from time to time they observe the Creation abused, faculty and students find themselves seeking ways as God's stewards to redeem a degraded environment.
