Tom Vest
2009 SCA Alumnus
A Heart for Missions
Tom’s first experience with foreign missions was when he went with SCA’s basketball team and coaches to Costa Rica in the summer of 2008. He then went with Impact Sports to Ghana in January of 2011 and felt a true call to missions. Tom then spent a month in China in the summer of 2011, and since returning home has been searching for a way to go back. That search ended when he accepted a job to teach English and coach basketball in China for the Spring Semester, with the option of staying for a full year. SCA is so proud of Tom and his obedience to go where God leads him!
Atticus Fehl
2008 SCA Alumnus
Atticus Fehl, is currently a student and Bonner Scholar at Wofford College. The Wofford Today recently highlighted Atticus as a Bonner Scholor who has had a great impact on our community. A Bonner Scholor spends at least 10 hours per week and 280 hours per summer in community service in exchange for scholarships. Dr. Benjamin Dunlap, the President of Wofford College, says, “I believe the world is a better place because of Wofford College. I am certain it’s a better place because of the Bonner Scholars
Program.” Atticus, Wofford College class of 2012, has volunteered for three years at the St. Luke’s Free Medical Clinic where some of the staff confirm, he “could run the place.” Fehl continues to lead as he regularly tackles new responsibilities at St. Luke’s Free Medical Center. We are proud of Atticus for his
continued efforts in serving the people of Spartanburg!
