Global Awareness 2022: Puerto Rico

The HELM Leadership Fellows Program is for undergraduate students who are part of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). The Program aims to develop leaders through an intentional focus on four major areas. The first year of the program focuses on Community and students reflect on what it means to be Christian community.

The theme for the second year is Transformation and it gives students a chance to reflect on how Christian communities engage in transforming church, society, and world. In the third year, students focus on Global Awareness and the interconnectedness of Christian communities around the world. The fourth and final year focuses on mentoring and spiritual vocational discernment.

In the third year, HELM partners with the Division of Overseas Missions/Global Ministries to take the students on an international trip to see how we engage in ministries of accompaniment in a particular part of the world. This year students traveled to Puerto Rico, please click pictures below to read the student and mentor reflections!
