Reconnecting with my counselor friends and making new friends and connections at NACCAP Conference this week! Learning so much!

This is a beautiful campus and a great place to visit if your student is looking for an authentic Christian community where 99% of graduates find employment or placement in their graduate program. I love their intentionality about building community and discipleship centered around Christ and vocation.
