Instead of heading to the beaches, hundreds of Gustavus Adolphus College students will once again engage in service to others during Spring Break. About 50 students will go on a mission trip to Costa Rica, more than 150 students will go to one of seven US destinations for the college’s 11th annual spring break work trips, and about 20 students will go on a mission trip to Washington, DC. All of the trips are student-initiated, student-organized, and student-funded through fundraisers and donations, typically. The trips are centered primarily around Habitat for Humanity and other construction projects. The DC group will work and worship with impoverished communities.
