Student Missions at Southern
For over 50 years Student Mission has been equipping students to serve as the hands and feet of Jesus, reaching people with the gospel around the world. Students spend four to twelve months learning to live beyond the borders of their faith. It is our deepest desire to see lives changing for the kingdom of Christ.
Why donations are important
Each year Southern Adventist University sends out more than 60 full-time student missionaries. I have agreed to raise $5500 for Southern's Student Missions program. The funds raised will collectively help cover our airfare, visas, insurance training, and care packages. I am excited to serve as a student missionary! Will you help me reach my goal? Whatever you are able to give is greatly appreciated by the 2023-24 student missionaries, the people we will serve, and also myself.
Why I'm Choosing to Serve in Zambia
My decision to be a missionary began long before I had even come to Southern. As I contemplated what major I should choose, I considered positions that could be implemented into long-term mission and felt compelled to Nursing. Coming to the end of my Nursing School journey, I pondered what else God had in store for me. He answered my prayers by providing me with the perfect opportunity to make a commitment to Student Missions during their emphasis week. Through these series of events, I believe God was saying, "Whom shall I send? And who will go for Us?", and with my decision to serve as a Student Missionary I am responding, "Here I am! Send me." I will be going to Zambia as a Nurse where I will help out at a government clinic under the supervision of the local Zambian nurses. My hope and prayer is that I can be even the smallest reflection of Jesus, the source of healing, to every person I meet.
How will my donation be used?
All gifts received go toward the expenses of this year’s student missionaries. If we exceed our goal, the remaining funds will be applied toward the expenses of future student missionaries.
Thank you!
