AmeriCorps Comes to PIU

SAMSUNG            We were happy to welcome Lisa Jensen from The Guahan Charter School and the AmeriCorps program to PIU for a seminar today. Several of our students are already doing their WeWork hours and volunteer work at the Charter School and about 30 students attended the seminar today to find out about becoming AmeriCorps members working at the Guahan Charter School. Our students are well-suited for doing this kind of mentoring work and are very excited at the possibility of gaining valuable work experience in the education field. They also just like to be ministering with kids. We would appreciate your prayers for our PIU students as they take this step. Guahan Charter School is a new venture on Guam this year and PIU is happy to be partnering with them.
