Ministry Life
Chapel is held four times weekly in the DeSantis Family Chapel, Monday through Thursday at 11 a.m., as well as other times, dates and locations that are listed on the chapel calendar. Chapel is a requirement for all full-time students, both undergraduate and graduate, who attend class during the daytime. Students must attend 24 chapels per year.
Workship is a distinctive community service program that has been at the heart of PBA since its founding in 1968. Workship combines "work" with "worship," serving God through serving the community. All full-time undergraduate students are required to serve 45 hours per year. Students may choose from PBA-sponsored group service events, or may serve individually at an non profit organization, church or school of their choice. Since the school was founded in 1968, 2 million hours of student community service have been given by the students and faculty.
Mission Trips are created yearly for students. Mission teams travel to countries all over the world and minister through performing arts, street ministries, construction, medical outreach, sports workshops and more. The teams travel during the summer on a multi-week trip and on a one-week Spring Break trip.

Famous quotes containing the words ministry and/or life:
“the eave-drops fall
Heard only in the trances of the blast,
Or if the secret ministry of frost
Shall hang them up in silent icicles,
Quietly shining to the quiet Moon.”
—Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)
“We all come from our own little planets. That’s why we’re all different. That’s what makes life interesting.”
—Robert E. Sherwood (1896–1955)
