At Wheaton Academy, you will have many opportunities to serve on campus, in our local community, and around the globe. You’ll participate in class service days, be invited to volunteer as a tutor through Puente Del Pueblo, pack food for Feed My Starving Children, and collect cans for Northern IL food bank. You’ll have opportunities to make a global impact on our sponsored children through a partnership with Kids Alive in Haiti and the Dominican Republic, or through our other Winterim Missions trips to Costa Rica, Peru, and Scotland.
Serving is a part of Wheaton Academy’s mission to “nurture growth in students through relationships, excellence and service to the glory of God.” On our campus, you will learn to serve in the cultural context of a Kingdom Community, where people from different races, ethnicities, socio-economic backgrounds, different learning styles, different denominations, and both women and men come together under the Lordship of Jesus Christ to honor one another. People are desperately crying out for justice, healing, and reconciliation, and we believe these are ultimately found through a relationship with Jesus and humble surrender to Kingdom living which involves serving others (Luke 22:25-26).
