Serving Society...

Earlier, we described with words how integral, important, and wonderful the service element of Westmont in Istanbul actually is. Now, we have a small visual look at some of these experiences:


One of the service projects sends some of our women to a home for Armenian girls. The women spend the evening talking, laughing, crafting, loving on, and sharing a meal with each other.

President-Elect Kristin Lo shares a laugh.

 Another project has a few of our students going across town to a retirement community for foreigners. The students help to serve lunch, spend some time with the residents, and sometimes even work to spruce up the outside of the place.

As we begin to wrap up our time in Istanbul (CRAZY!) we are starting to already look back upon some memories fondly. It's become obvious that these projects will be some of the warmest memories.

Students are currently prepping for exams, as this week is our finals week! They could use some thoughts and prayers as we start shifting gears again!
