U.S. College & Grad School: An Opportunity to Know Christ

Description
This workshop redefines the journey of higher education as an opportunity to deepen one’s relationship with Christ. It is a space where academic pursuits transcend technical details to become a pathway for spiritual growth, personal testimony sharing, and practical mentorship. Centered on the idea that knowing God and being known by Him is the true purpose of education, the workshop offers a reflective and engaging environment, especially for students from missionary and pastor families.
