Mission
Reach the mixed-religion student community, increase the spiritual atmosphere of Hong Kong Adventist College, and be a positive example.
Description
Hong Kong Adventist College is always looking for 10 students each year who are willing to study and work as Student Ambassadors in Hong Kong for a year. The volunteer students study part-time in the college and serve as a chaplain assistant under the practical missionary training program. This is an opportunity for free enrollment in courses related to Chinese culture—up to 8 credit hours per semester (total of 16 for a school year). Student Ambassadors are also awarded a $2,000 scholarship at the end of their term.
Some responsibilities of a student ambassador include taking a few classes, socializing with the students, leading out in worship programs, learning Mandarin, giving Bible studies, sharing musical talents, planning games/social events, making short trips to China to teach English, and introducing Christ to fellow students through one's daily life.
