“I still have no idea what I want to do with my life career-wise, however, since coming to Ecuador I have seen the glory of God displayed in the most creative ways. It is encouraging to know that whatever passion God places in my heart can be used for his glory as long as I continue to daily give my life to him. There’s so much I wish I could communicate but I can’t even begin to articulate half of what God has been doing in my heart. No matter what the future holds, Ecuador will always be more than just an experience, but the things I have seen and done and learned will always be a part of my life. The challenge is to continue Christ’s work wherever he leads me to serve, whether in San Diego, Chicago, Quito, or to the ends of the earth. ”
Chelsea – Trinity Christian College

“ The Ecuador semester abroad program was, on every level, one of the most intense periods of my life. Intense not only in the excitement I had, but also it challenged me to pursue God's comfort rather than what i had become accustomed to. Additionally, an intense urgency for the kingdom of God was instilled in me. Awesome. ”
Zach - Eternity Bible College

“ Living in Ecuador and being a part of the study abroad program removed me from my normal comfortable environment in life, which presented many challenges that caused me to mature in life. I learned about my strengths and weaknesses, throughout the semester. I learned so much from my spiritual formation class, by living in another culture, being exposed to so many differences, and by traveling on our mission’s experience. It was amazing to see people passionate about the Gospel and committed to going forth to the neighboring towns and villages. ”
Dave - Eternity Bible College

“ My experience in Ecuador is unforgetable. The things we did and saw in the hospital and in the orphanage were very worthwhile, and I appreciated the discussions we had at each night after our day. ”
Amber – Augustana College - Nursing team for January term

“ Staying with a host familiy was an amazing experience. This is where I learned the most about Ecuadorian culture. I do not know how to into words my time in Ecuador. I was challenged physically, emotionally and spiritually. I will not leave this experience the same person. ”
Kristie – Augustana College

“ This experience opened my eyes to a new culture and new people. During my college years I have pushed my faith and God to the side focusing on school and work. This time in Ecuador reminded me why it is important to include God in my life and make my life about more than just me. ”
Emily – Augustana College
