SERVICE-LEARNING MODEL

These four videos introduce trip participants to the ideals that Border Perspective values and how we approach service-learning experiences. This model will help you prepare for your trip by cultivating a posture of humility and curiosity, coming not as doers, but as learners ready to listen, serve, and understand.

 
 
  • Prepare for the journey — As you prepare to pack, it is crucial to prepare your heart and mind for the experience that lies ahead.

  • Ask yourself — What are my hopes and fears? What lessons does God have for me to learn during this immersive trip?

  • Pray — Take these questions to God in prayer, allowing His wisdom and guidance to shape your perspective. As you pray, trust that God will equip you with all that you need for the journey ahead, guiding you towards His purpose and fulfilling the desires of your heart.
