CSM, Part II

Part of what makes the Center for Student Missions so special is that they emerse you in the culture of the city in which you are serving. Los Angeles is a city comprised of many different cultural backgrounds and each one helps create the overall culture of the city. As of the 2010 census, more than 35% of the population of Los Angeles was foreign born. This does not include the thousands of the immigrants that stream through, using Los Angeles as a point of entry before moving to another city. The native lands of Los Angeles residents represent more than 140 different countries throughout the world.

What a wonderful opportunity we will have in just a few short weeks!
