Belmont Travels to Africa


On May 13, twenty students and three faculty members from Belmont University will leave for South Africa and Botswana. Students will be taking classes that focus on social entrepreneurship, writing, and religion as they serve others. In both Cape Town, South Africa, and Gaborone, Botswana, the students will work with local organizations that are involved in AIDS prevention and education. Students will make presentations in local schools, work with preschoolers, meet with peers, and attend guest lectures by local professors from area universities.

Nicole,
I'm a friend of your moms and just wanted to remind you that "God is able to do immeasurably more than anything you could ever ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work within you." (Eph. 3:20) It will be exciting to hear all that the Lord accomplishes through this trip!
Blessings, Mel Tunney
