Servant Life is a non-profit ministry founded in 1999 to send students to serve the world with the love of Christ. Our goal at Servant Lufe is to offer dynamic and life-changing short-term mission experiences. We believe the lessons that students learn on the mission field will help them engage their local cultures for Christ. Since our inception, we have sent nearly 2,000 participants to seven different countries to serve.

Servant Life currently sends teams to ministry parntners in six different countries:

• • Ukraine, Radooga Camps
  • Ecuador, U.N.P.E.S Camps
  • South Africa, Refilwe Community Project

At Samford University you'll find the personal relationships of a small college with the dynamic academic, cultural, and athletics resources of a major university. As one of only a handful of national doctoral universities that hold to a distinctively Christian mission, Samford provides opportunities to be part of a community where you are challenged to grow intellectually and spiritually and to discover how you can make a difference in the world.

While statistics and stories of the direction of our culture are staggering, they only share one side of the story. There are 5% of Christians who have lead someone to Christ. There are 30% of "Christians" out there who believe that Jesus is the only way to heaven. As deep as the trouble gets, it seems that the stronger the believers get as well. God is building his Church in the hearts of His people in every city in the U.S. Our call is to unite the Church, in every community, with a plan, to touch every teenage life before they graduate from high school. Students are on the greatest mission field in the World: a middle or high school in America. Engaged in the middle of teenage culture, students are the boots on the ground that we are here to train, pray for, and support just as we do for our missionaries in a foreign country. First Priority gives them a plan and helps them share the message of Jesus Christ with unbelieving students.

Mobilizing Students exists to Launch the Next Generation Missionary...the Student! We accomplish this in three primary ways. MISSION TRIPS for student ministries, TREK-X A 4-year journey for 18-25 yr olds where they complete COLLEGE/SEMINARY online at the University of their choice, are DISCIPLED by our staff and travel the world on MISSION sharing Christ & planting house-churches among the poor & marginalized and CAREER MISSIONS as our Trek-X graduates have the opportunity to be commissioned as fully-funded teams who will serve as our full-time missionaries in these 8 locations.

Over 1.1 billion people (around 1 in 8 of the world's population) are without access to safe water. Every day, women and children face the hardship of collecting water from long distances for their families. Once home, this dirty water endangers lives and prevents children from growing up into strong, healthy adults.

Water of Life tackles the urgent needs in developing countries today - providing safe drinking water to children and their families. Working in partnership with local churches, Compassion International identifies children who are in need of safe water and provides them with Compassion's Water of Life, a simple but powerful system that gives a child a lifetime of safe water. One filter system can provide safe water for life (over 1 million gallons) for a child and his or her family in developing countries.

IMPACT 360 is an academic gap-year experience with the mission of equipping members of future generations to become Christ-centered servant leaders. 18-20 year-old students spend nine months at our Pine Mountain, Ga., campus focused on apologetics and worldview studies, leadership training at corporate Chick-fil-A, and weekly local service projects. The program includes a month-long international mission trip to Brazil, 15 hours of college credit from Union University, and the unique opportunity to live in ultimate community with other like-minded young adults.

Each school year, up to 33 students from accross the nation are selected based on leadership and the desire to grow in faith and understanding of God's purpose for their life. Our wish is to change the way our students view the world; to send IMPACT 360 graduates into college or the marketplace with a faith they can claim with confidence, no matter where life leads.

HELP END MALARIA!
"If you think you're too small to make a difference, try sleeping in a room with a mosquito." Mosquitoes carry malaria - a tropical disease that kills over 750,000 children each year. That's one child every 30 seconds. The BITE BACK campaign is mobilizing youth around the country to provide mosquito nets to protect children from malaria. Let's be the generation that ends malaria. Let's Bite Back!
