Providing numerous opportunities for me to serve in the community, WAU has nurtured me not only to be a successful student, but also a disciple for Christ. This is my Gateway to Service. This is Washington Adventist University.
—Jeffrey Wilson, Biology class of 2017
I believe in the Gateway to Service. It’s a powerful part of the WAU experience. It exists to teach why we serve. You can learn to serve in the Peace Corps or working for the Red Cross, but if you don’t know why you serve. . . . A school like Washington Adventist University teaches why you serve: it’s Jesus.
