Our FBLA students were privileged to tour the new Wal-Mart headquarters in Bentonville, Ark last week. Not only was the new headquarters impressive, but our students were met and led by the nicest people! Our students had the honor of meeting and hearing from 6 EU alums working at Wal-Mart, heard from a business owner that has product on Wal-Mart shelves, toured a distribution center, and visited the Wal-Mart museum (even saw a hologram of Sam Walton). It was quite a day! Thank you to Mark Espinosa (EU Board member) who set up the whole experience. Thank you, Wal-Mart!

We had a great Senior Celebration Brunch last week! It was a delicious event spending time with a wonderful group of students. Faculty members got to share last words of wisdom to the group, we honored our Academic Excellence students (3.9+ GPA), and then got to pray a blessing over them. God bless them on their new adventure after Evangel!

Great post from Evangel about one of our Business majors. Proud of Dwaylen!

“During my time at Evangel I have learned how important time is. Understand that God’s timing is always perfect and things will happen when they are supposed to. Also, I’ve learned the importance of time management and getting ahead of your week. Planning out what time I have in the day to split between priorities is very important. Without managing time well, areas of my life will fall.

Evangel has grown me spiritually by helping me step out of lukewarm Christianity. At Evangel, I have found a love and passion for Jesus like I have never had in the past. It scared me away at first but once I understood how God was trying to use Evangel to work through me, I had been forever changed. Leaning into the chapel services and community of Evangel has helped me learn that we need to repent daily and pick up our cross rather than only calling on God in inconveniences.”
