Clarendon Scholars

“What brought me to Gordon was The Kinesiology major and Clarendon program. I have always been interested in the human body and its functionality and mechanism of movement. I knew I wanted to pursue this passion in a godly environment, and I felt the Lord calling me to Gordon. In my involvement as a Clarendon, Mío intern, and involvement in administration, my purpose developed into helping others and pursuing a nursing career. Clarendon provided me with incredible mentors who encouraged and nurtured my passion to follow God’s path. These mentors were the most prominent influence in my time at Gordon, and, without their guidance, I would not have been able to achieve the best, God-following version of myself. Not only that, but Clarendon provided a strong community of believers that played a large part in my college experience as well as helping me grow closer to God and His plan for my life. I look forward to moving into the nursing world, knowing that the Clarendon program has equipped me to accomplish this path where God has placed me.”
