[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] As I graduate High School this spring, I feel the Lord calling me to step onto the water and trust Him as I live out the plan he has set before me in a radical way: to go on mission before college. What I want, more than anything, is to learn to love. Not in the...

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Why I Serve After graduating from university, I went on mission with Con-solatio and served in Argentina. I met Christ in this new culture, in my fellow missionaries, and through friendship with those who were suffering and lonely. Through my mission, I recognized Christ’s mercy, love, and compassion for me. I am working in our domestic outreach...
