Union Adventist University students plunged into ministry — and into the snow — when they went to Glacier View Ranch over the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday weekend to help lead the Greater Summit, a prayer conference for middle and high school students.
“The teenagers were really fun to be around,” said Marcus McConaghy, a senior theology major. “They were always willing to talk and help out. I really enjoyed seeing the cooperation.”
In addition to worship services, activities over the four-day weekend included sewing blankets, candle making, sledding, hiking, board games and swimming. The Union students returned to start classes that Tuesday exhausted. “I put 110 percent into everything I did there until my body couldn’t take it anymore,” McConaghy said.
