Community is at the heart of
Acts Academy!
The cohousing community is a natural part of life at Bible School. You’ll build strong relationships and have the opportunity to grow—both personally and spiritually. This shared experience allows you to encourage one another, develop your character, and create lifelong friendships.
Beyond personal growth, the cohousing community also brings plenty of fun, laughter, and everyday socializing. Many students cherish the sense of belonging and the joy of supporting each other on the journey.
At Acts Academy, food is more than just a meal—it’s an experience. We’ve brought together a passionate kitchen team led by our head chef, Rasmus Mortensen, who, along with Mussi and Gitte, creates nourishing and delicious food made with care, creativity, and love.
Our chefs are dedicated to serving healthy and flavorful meals every day, using fresh ingredients to fuel both body and soul. But it’s not just about what’s on the plate—Rasmus has also played a key role in shaping the warm, communal atmosphere in our large dining hall. It’s a space where students come together, share stories, and build lasting friendships around the table.
Whether you’re enjoying a comforting dish on a rainy day or something fresh and energising before a full schedule, the food at Acts Academy will leave you both satisfied and inspired.
A Part of Your Development!
Practical work is more than just chores—it’s a way to honor each other, take responsibility, and care for the school community.
Serving in areas often unnoticed by others allows you to develop a servant-hearted attitude and gain a sense of purpose in everyday tasks. Because practical work is part of life, every student takes on daily responsibilities during lunch or after school.
Daily tasks mainly include cleaning, serving, and dishwashing:
+Cleaning common areas (vacuuming, mopping floors, cleaning toilets and showers)
+Serving morning coffee and lunch (hot meals)
+Meal preparation (students help with breakfast and dinner)
+Dishwashing after meals
Throughout the year, we host major events—an opportunity to connect people, create memorable experiences, and draw them closer to God.
Students play an active role in these events, taking on various responsibilities. Expect 3–4 larger events and multiple smaller gatherings throughout the year.
Together, we strive to create a welcoming atmosphere and ensure that every guest feels at home.
As a folk high school student, much of your free time is spent together with your peers. What you do is up to you, and there are plenty of options:
Fitness & Sports – Work out in the small gym, play sports in the hall, or enjoy the beautiful surroundings—perfect for a run!
Movies, Games & Fun – Hang out in the newly designed dining hall, the student lounge, or in your rooms. In summer, the school park is an ideal place to relax and socialize.
Library & Study Spaces – Find your next great read, create a focused study environment, or simply enjoy a quiet retreat.
Kolding City, Beach & Mall – Just a few kilometers away, you’ll find shops, cafés, and a vibrant city atmosphere.
Small Groups & Church Life – We encourage everyone to join or start a small group—a great way to grow together and connect with people outside the school.
Church Activities – Students are involved in various church events and can serve in different ministries during weekdays.

The best way to fund your stay is through savings, eliminating financial stress. Consider working during summer holidays or while in high school to save up.
Many churches support Bible college students as their training benefits the congregation.
Family and friends may also provide financial help, either as a one-time gift or monthly support.
As a last resort, you may consider taking a private or bank loan.
A one-year stay at Bible college costs approximately 60.000 DKK (excluding pocket money).
Bible college students are not eligible for SU.
However, if you already receive SU and can attend Bible college simultaneously, you may continue receiving SU (e.g., during maternity leave or while writing a final assignment).

Once everything is submitted, the processing time is approximately 2 months, but it can take longer.If you already have a visa to Denmark
