Exploratory courses in PREP are designed to discover and develop each student’s unique gifts and talents for God’s glory. This year, we expanded the exploratory programming with a new course called Joyful Gestures. Joyful Gestures is a service learning program rooted in the Bible. Inspired by verses like Acts 20:35, where Jesus said, “It is more blessed to give than to receive,” students embark on meaningful adventures of compassion and generosity. By serving others, they experience the joy of following Christ’s example and positively impacting their community. Through various projects and activities, they discover the joy of helping others, cultivating empathy,...
