WHY?
Many who would like to come say "but what will I DO?" We answer "you don't always have to "do", just come and "be". Some say "why don't I just send the money and stay home?" There is a concept called a ministry of presence. You and the students and community of St. Andrews will learn from each other and the friendships forged are well worth the trip! The encouragement of your presence means a great deal. It is very humbling and amazing for our school to think that you would spend all that money and time to come to JUST BE WITH THEM. |
