On Monday 26 April, 16 students and 5 staff departed for the Solomon Islands as part of the College’s International Missions Trip. Across 8 days, students served alongside the local community through school chapels, classroom activities, youth programs, church services, and outreach opportunities.
A particularly impactful experience for many students was visiting the Bethesda Disability Centre, where students witnessed the resilience, joy, and faith of individuals learning essential life skills. Students also led all aspects of the Sunday church service, including worship, testimonies, preaching, children’s ministry, and an evening encounter service.
The trip concluded with a heartfelt closing ceremony celebrating the partnership and relationships built throughout the week. For many students, the experience was life changing and provided valuable growth in confidence, gratitude, compassion, leadership, and faith.
Matthew D. reflected:
“This mission trip opened my eyes to parts of the world I would never normally get to see. The hospitality of the Solomon Islands people was incredible despite their limited resources. It reminded me how blessed we are and taught me to be more humble and appreciative.”
Another student shared:
“One part of the trip that stood out to me was visiting the Bethesda Disability Centre. Their school song reminded us that although we all have weaknesses, God is strong through them. It was such a powerful experience that challenged me to focus less on what I want and more on gratitude for what I already have.”
