Issue: Spring 2016
From The President
One of the things that continually impresses me is the extent to which Union alumni (and even current students!) are changing the world.
Everywhere I go, I encounter stories of people — prepared for their callings at Union University — who are doing incredible things. Union alumni serve as missionaries in countries all over the globe. Union alumni serve in key leadership roles in local, state, and federal government. Union alumni serve as doctors and nurses and other health care professionals. Union alumni serve as teachers and school administrators. Union alumni serve as pastors and church leaders. Union alumni serve as moms and dads. Union alumni serve in business, communications, the arts, social work, and the list goes on and on.
Take Sarah Brubaker and Matt Nason, for example. You'll read their stories in this edition of the Unionite, about how God is using them in the marketplace to bring light and life to a world that is dark and hopeless apart from Christ. They are just two of the thousands of Unionites who are salt and light every day.
The Lord has been gracious to Union University, and He continues to shower His favor upon us. We're grateful for The Logos, the new library that we opened and dedicated last fall. If you haven't had a chance to see this beautiful new facility, we invite you to come anytime to have a look. It is a transformative addition to the campus.
We deeply appreciate your ongoing support of Union, and we ask for your continued prayers for us as we equip students to pursue excellence, to develop godly character, and to serve the church and society in the ways God has gifted them to do so.
"Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened and do not be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go." Joshua 1:9
Gratefully,
