Student Ecumenical Partnership

All will be well
Jake Joseph College is dotted with experiences you will remember and cherish forever. For Jake Joseph, a pair of wintertime retreats — the same location, some of the same people, but different experiences — has sustained him during a year overseas in France. A walk through an Iowa field still provides a place of calm reflection and a reminder of God's wonderful creation, and a song reminds him that despite all the troubles in life, all will be well.

"Don't forget us."
Brandon Cook During a visit to Jordan with the World Student Christian Federation, Brandon Cook met with Arab Christians, an often overlooked and forgotten element in Middle Eastern culture. As Christians leave the area, those left behind are poor, their communities poorer for the skills that leave with the emigrants. The Christians who remain feel abandoned by their Christian brothers and sisters abroad, and they have one simple request: Remember.
