Olivet The Magazine | The Shalom Project

“We go on these trips to listen, learn and love; to see how God is already at work; and to come alongside and partner with others in the family of God.”

June 6, 2024 Olivet The Magazine, Spiritual Life

Olivet Nazarene University’s Shalom Project ministry trips provide students with unique experiences to travel away from the Bourbonnais campus and experience new cultures and communities. This spring Olivet sent 78 students and 12 faculty and staff members to Costa Rica, Honduras, the Dominican Republic, Kentucky and Nicaragua. During this week of intentional service, among other activities, Olivet teams partnered with local churches; taught in schools; participated in community restoration projects and relationship building; aided in the work of medical clinics; served in women’s shelters; and hosted vacation Bible school and after-school programs.
