STEP OUTSIDE YOUR COMFORT ZONE

         "There are so many names I'll never remember. Only a few pictures remain to tell the story...My life has been full of blessings. After 21 years of living, l can say that already and, looking back, I have joy."
                 - Judson senior, Keri Reeves, on being a summer missionary to Niamey, Niger in 2007

                                           *********

        Ever wondered what it would be like to spend time in another country, getting to know the people there, the culture, the beliefs, the land itself?

      Have you ever wanted to just get involved, to explore, to step outside the boundaries of normalcy and truly begin to live your life to the fullest?


       All of this is possible, and more, if you only take the time to discover...

      ...At Judson College, we encourage our students to participate in study / travel programs or study abroad if their heart so desires. Additionally, each year Campus Ministries on the Judson College campus sponsors a mission trip and, through partnership with the Alabama Baptist State Convention, also helps Judson students apply for individual summer mission trips. You could find yourself spreading the Gospel to University students in Mexico or reading Bible stories to orphaned children in Africa.

      The adventure does not end with missions, however, Study / Travel programs are offered annually. Find out what it's like to study acting in Los Angeles' prestigious film school. Travel to Italy for two weeks with your humanities class and enjoy literary walking tours while getting to view Michelangelo's well-known statue, David, and Botticelli's Birth of Venus.

      Or, if you're still looking for a way to feel more globally connected, while meeting a diverse group of people, then perhaps Study Abroad is an option for you. Spend a semester in Australia, studying at the University and working in the city. Study in China, London, Russia, France, Ireland...

      The possibilities are endless! Opportunities abound! At Judson College, take your pick...
