May 20-June 1, 2014 – St John’s U Panama Plunge 2014 begins with prayer led by Campus Ministry leaders: Melissa Gibilaro and Arielle Castillo.
In Panama, students live and work within a rural, farming community. They help with the needs of the community, for example an agricultural project, a family day for the children, painting, etc. Students have the unique opportunity of staying with host families and truly learning what it means to be a Panamanian.
Update: 2:30AM and we’re off to the airport. As ready as I’ll be to spend the next 2 weeks with 13 students and my co-leader in Panama. Pray for all of us that we may find God in all we meet and be the presence of Christ to all we encounter.
Let’s do this!
