The different trips and opportunities will be represented by different booths in the Student Center, where students can gather as much information as needed. Missions representatives will be at every booth to answer any questions. Students can choose to participate in mission efforts that have been established at Lipscomb for many years, such as the mission trip to Scotland or the opportunity to work with an orphanage in Ghana, West Africa.
