With Veritas: Christian Study Abroad, students become more globally mission-minded by Veritas facilitating links between the students and local evangelical ministries and mission outreach opportunities. As the students engage the host culture with a spirit of humility and service, they will develop a greater understanding and love for the people in their host culture. These experiences will significantly change their understanding of the world and the global mission task. Students who pour themselves into the mission will find that their passion for the Great Commission will grow and theirs eyes will be opened to the exciting possibilities of the future.
The mission component of Veritas programs is exciting! Your long-term involvement with your new culture will make it possible to gain a better understanding of the needs of the culture while you are abroad. Whether you are serving refugees from the Middle East, preparing food at a homeless shelter, ministering in prisons or just talking to people, your participation will affect you and those you serve.
