When Amanda reached high school, she was excited and ready for her turn to serve.

Throughout that trip, Amanda felt in her heart that this location was special, as she quickly formed deeper relationships with the children.&nbsp;</p> <p> That same year, when her high school English teacher assigned a project asking for career interests, Amanda wasn&rsquo;t sure what to do. She knew she loved mission trips, so the teacher suggested she shadow workers in the General Conference or ADRA offices since she lived in Maryland. Amanda observed someone for a day who suggested a degree in community and international development at Andrews University, which is exactly what Amanda chose.</p> <p> &lt;&lt;&lt; Read the full story at the Lake Union Herald <a href="https://www.lakeunionherald.org/archive/articles/heart-for-honduras">site</a> &gt;&gt;&gt;</p> Thu, 28 Aug 2025 15:33:15 +0000 Faith Journeys to Andrews University http://www.andrews.edu/agenda/68266 <div> At Andrews University, students come from all over the globe&mdash;but their paths to Berrien Springs are as unique as they are.</div> <div> &nbsp;</div> <div> Each journey reflects a personal pursuit of purpose, shaped by faith, resilience and a desire to grow.
