GROWTH AND SUPPORT

Social engagement with students, meeting chaplain pastors, and praying together with Elim can offer a “grace” filled experience of community life on campus and in the USA.
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA FUN
Also take the opportunity to go sightseeing, hiking, checking out delicious restaurants, sandy beaches, and visiting famous landmarks in sunny Southern California. Join a cell group and enjoy weekend fellowship together, breaking bread at cafes, group meals, or planned outings.

This program is opened to members who have an interest in applying to OU’s on-campus program. The applicant must be recommended by their World Olivet Assembly church pastor.
