The semester may be winding down, but our Spring Break trip was just the beginning of us gearing up for next Fall! We took a team of 15 to the University of Virginia to learn all we could from their veteran Chi Alpha ministry. Our staff team gained new insight for training student leaders, but the more exciting part was how our students were impacted. They were motivated and empowered as they interacted with powerful student leaders at UVA. Below is a look at how they described what they wanted to take away from their experience. Youd also be surprised how much God can do to transform the hearts of 15 people just from riding 28+ hours on a bus together! We enjoyed many opportunities to encourage, affirm, serve, and pray for one another. We became more like the community we long to be on our campus as a reflection of Gods character. Join us in praying that what God began in our team will continue in us and overflow to the rest of our students who werent able to join. Thank you for being an important partner in helping students grow in their lifelong call to make disciples! With love, Brooke
