PERU

Experience the journey of our students, parents and teachers who were traveling in Peru!  During their trip they helped to build a sewer line for a girls dormitory.  This act of service so affected the students that with a help of an anonymous donor and plans for the students to raise money, they purchased 22 mattresses, pillows, sheets, and blankets for this same group.  What a truly amazing group of students.  Find out more by clicking the link below.
