As many know, we lost a dear student, Serena Bennett, in May 2025. In honor of Serena’s adventurous spirit and love for travel while exploring God’s creation we have started a memorial travel fund to help students pursue the adventures she loved and helped shape the wonderful person she was. (Giving link is below. All gifts in May will be matched up to $2,500 per household.)
