LAUP STM Details
June 22 - August 9, 2017
Serving Location:
The Harambee Center, Pasadena, CA
Description:
"The Los Angeles Urban Program gives students a real-life experience of living out their values by sending them to partner with community-based organizations that address the social issues of the city. Students live among the poor, go to church in urban communities, and are on a fixed-income comparable to the residents in their neighborhoods. In the midst of this experience, students receive teaching from a Christian perspective on the biblical values of service, justice, and compassion, as well as receiving regular training in leadership, teamwork, and decision-making. This combination of hands-on experience and training equips students to use their careers to combat the social, economic, and spiritual challenges of our world.."
