Testimonials
“My favorite part of participating in the Beach Project was living with people who shared the same values and hope as Christians. I also enjoyed the one-on-one opportunities with the staff and their families. Wave-running was a great experience. I also like how we as students were respected and treated as adults.”
—Matthew Gaddis, Ohio State
“I entered the Beach Project knowing that my vocation should be around the point at which my gifts and talents most closely overlapped with the world’s needs, but I came away with a Christian worldview through which I could gain vision about my profession in perfection, how it would look in an unfallen world where God’s will is done as in heaven, and passion to push the work in a holy direction.”
—Ryan Heimann, Washing & Jefferson College
“The people were my favorite part of the summer! They encouraged me, cried with me, laughed with me, talked over tough stuff with me, and lived with me. These relationships didn’t stop after the project was over. I still depend on them when things are rough.” —Hannah Kelley, Malone College
“My favorite part of the summer was the late night honest chats about anything and group outings, like going to the ferris wheel as a group, and group pictures on the beach.” —Jennifer Santner, Penn State
“The Beach Project has revolutionized my view of who God is and who I am
in relation to Him. My life has been much more intentional ever since
the Project. The Beach Project gave me a tremendous insight into
how backwards the world is without God and how beautiful it is with Him.” —Andrew Polack, Westminster College
