After talking with educators, parents and students for the March Visitor, many say ‘yes.’ Join the Visitor’s panel of education experts Tuesday, March 18, at noon, to discuss why Seventh-day Adventist education is still worth the investment. We will also share tips on how to help your child succeed, no matter what school they attend.

Panelists include:

One of Bithja Racine’s favorite Bible texts comes from 1 Corinthians 10:31, and it says, “So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God” (NIV). So instead of rolling over to catch a few more winks of sleep, this text drove her to a kitchen at Washington Adventist University in Takoma Park, Md., at 3 a.m. on a Thursday morning. She was not alone. The junior counseling psychology major was joined by several of her fellow students. And throughout the day, in between classes, more students would help prepare a veritable feast that included rice and beans, macaroni and cheese, a special Haitian dish, lasagna, salad, steamed vegetables, patties and cakes.
