Voices of Grace

“I am forever thankful for the ways in which the Environmental Science program at Grace College has challenged me and encouraged an awe for the wonders of God's creation. Through various hands-on experiences, from caving to touring state-of-the-art facilities for field trips, sampling some of Kosciusko County's stunning lakes to learning about microscopic organisms, I have gotten to be mentored by kind and knowledgeable faculty who prioritize my relationship with Jesus first and foremost.”
