As a student at Cornerstone, I was involved in the World Outreach Committee. We organized projects to support global and local missions. Monthly, we served food to homeless and low-income individuals at Dégagé Ministries in downtown Grand Rapids. The experience was both challenging and rewarding for me. When it became time to look for an internship, I called Dégagé to ask if they would consider me. I started my internship in May 2002. I haven’t left Dégagé since and am now beginning my tenth year there. I credit my participation in the World Outreach Committee at Cornerstone for opening the doors to this great opportunity. I have learned many things about God’s character at Dégagé. I have also met many wonderful people—those we serve as well as some amazing community members. God is clearly at work in the ministry and in shaping my heart. Cornerstone provided me with a foundation to develop my Biblical worldview and strengthen my leadership skills. This has been invaluable not only in my career, but in many other areas of life as well.
