The other Spring Break trip will send about 20 students to Guatemala to spread the foundation's message. Robertson said the students traveling to Central America would probably spend their time with children in a Bible-school setting. Spring Break is not the only vacation time that Wesley students are willing to forego, as several students will spend part of their summer aiding the mission in Peru at Peru University. However, if traveling to Peru, Guatemala or even inner-city Memphis is not what a student is looking to do, there are many other things at Wesley. In addition to helping lower-income or older families in the area with painting and other odds and ends around their homes, local events permit students to express their creative talents through drama and music.
Students also have many opportunities for worship and learning through the foundation.
Wesley's Tuesday night campus worship service, Breakaway, offers students a chance to come together as a large group. Throughout the week, smaller, student-led groups meet in students' dorms and houses. And, getting involved in the UA Wesley Foundation's activities is simple. For students who might feel a little intimidated by walking into a large group not knowing anyone, there are other options. The initial contact allows the new students to meet some members before arriving at their first Breakaway.
