Service Project

For the past two years, first year students have worked with Operation Christmas Child through Samaritan's Purse to help supply the needs of children all over the world.   The Blue Raider freshmen will discover what it means to serve someone outside themselves.  It is a great way for our students at LWC to impact the world and lend a helping hand.
