World Outreach Week

Making a Way | Isaiah 43:19

World Outreach Week (WOW) is held in the fall semester each year at Corban University. It is a visible expression of the vision and character of our university – and more: 

  • It provides the privilege to think deeply about the spread of the Gospel and to praise God for the growing maturity of believers.  
  • It is an opportunity to be inspired by godly men and women, to spend time with them, and to learn from them.  
  • Finally, WOW challenges us to consider how our strengths, weaknesses, talents, interests, and availability may be used by God in His work, for His glory, around the world. 

The WOW program includes inspiring chapel speakers, opportunities for conversations with representatives of many mission organizations, special evening talks in the dorms, classroom visitors, and international decor around campus.
