Andrews Holds 4th Annual Shop Berrien Week

   Agenda | Posted on January 23, 2020

The Andrews University Office of Campus Ministries will hold their fourth annual Shop Berrien Week from January 27–31, 2020. This event gives Andrews students, faculty, staff and local community members the opportunity to raise money for those who would like to serve as student missionaries. In order to make this event possible, Andrews has collaborated with several local businesses (see list below) who have agreed to set aside a designated percentage of each purchase to support student missions. Proceeds from this week help support an average of 25 missionaries per year.

“Shop Berrien works because our local business leaders recognize the value that Andrews University students bring to the community,” says José Bourget, University chaplain. “I’m inspired by the business leaders’ initiative to extend their economic engagement from 49103 to the world.”

Shop Berrien Week Stores & Dates
January 27: Baguette de France—10%
January 28: Mabuhay Oriental Store—10%
January 29: Village Do It Best Hardware—10%
January 30: Uptown Pizza Company—10%
January 31: Apple Valley—5%

Shop Berrien Week is just one part of an annual Student Missions Week at Andrews University. Student Missions Week, in conjunction with this year’s Student Week of Prayer, is designated as a time to celebrate and learn from students who have returned from the mission field, prepare others who have decided to serve, and encourage students to engage in Student Missions.

Week of Prayer will highlight the calling for missions and, each morning, feature student speakers from various departments on campus who have served in missions locally and abroad. The evening programs will focus on student missions and feature an international Missions Expo with food and games from different countries around the world, testimonies, Q&A with returned missionaries, and breakout sessions on various mission- and service-related topics.
