Everyone was impacted in unique and profound ways. The lives and ministries of the 29 students and six faculty and staff will never be the same.</div> <div> &nbsp;</div> <div> Living and traveling by river boat, the team journeyed to remote villages to share the gospel, run local ministries and partner closely with indigenous church leaders. Amidst the hard work, they witnessed God&rsquo;s hand at work in profound ways and experienced incredible hospitality from the local communities.</div> <div> &nbsp;</div> <div> It was truly a life-changing experience. Every team member returned home with a renewed passion for global service and a deeply impacted perspective on faith. The lives and ministries of our team will never be the same. We extend a massive thank you to our entire school community for the prayers, support and donations that made this vital journey possible!</div> Thu, 09 Jul 2026 09:09:05 +0000 http://www.andrews.edu/agenda/69419 <h1> _{On Sunday, July 12, 2026, at 10:00 am, there will be a HUGE Client Services Sale at Neighbor To Neighbor.
