Planting the seeds
School of Theology and Ministry graduate student Wendy Samuel remembers the comments volunteers made to her during her work at the Mustard Seed Communities, a home for abandoned and disabled children in Jamaica.
Many adults looked past the children's twisted limbs and their impoverished backgrounds, she says, and instead saw Christ in the children whose parents abandoned them on park benches and in sugar cane fields. The experience was personally and spiritually inspiring, to say the least — and she's expecting more of the same.
Samuel will be leading a group of fellow STM students on a service immersion trip during spring break to Jamaica, where they will volunteer in the Mustard Seed Communities for a week.

The service trip, which begins Feb. 28, will be the first for STM, which opened last fall. It also will be a homecoming for Samuel and her husband, Nathaniel, since both volunteered and worked in the community for several years.
