The SERVE.experience – Certificate of Intercultural Studies

SERVE is a nine-month discipleship tool, designed to foster personal, relational, and spiritual growth in students embarking on post-secondary studies. Through a combination of formal, academic training and practical, hands-on experience, students will become equipped to engage in effective cross-cultural service, whether in local contexts or global contexts.

Community (Relational Growth)

• Campus Life: build lifelong relationships with like-minded people.
