Beyond PAA
SERVE • LOVE • TRANSFORM
At PAA, learning doesn’t stop at the classroom door. We offer experiences that invite your student to explore the world, connect with others, and grow in faith and character—all in a safe, supportive environment.
Beyond campus, your student can participate in global mission trips, local service projects, wilderness exploration trips, outdoor leadership events, Bible camp, educational tours, music tours, and more. Each experience is designed to help them discover their gifts, serve others, and let God transform their hearts and lives.
THE BEYOND PAA MISSION
-
To explore other cultures while participating in activities that will help students to see the relevance of being God’s hands and feet.
-
To provide adequate time for students to engage with God and reflect upon His activity in the world around us and how we can be part of what He is doing.
-
To encourage students to engage with whom they come in contact – learning about them, about their world, and about their unique perspectives on living.
-
To develop a broad array of intercultural learning and development experiences that will allow students to develop their unique gifts and abilities and to learn how those gifts and abilities can be used to make the world a better place.
-
To produce young people whose perspectives have been transformed and who have developed greater cultural sensitivity, a sense of purpose, and a vision for how they are uniquely gifted to serve others.
-
To transform culture with the message of Jesus being delivered by people who make loving people the center of their mission.

​A Note About Tax-Deductible Receipts
To remain tax-deductible under IRS guidelines, donations must be made to PAA as an organization and cannot be designated for a specific student. Because of this, we’re unable to issue a tax-deductible receipt for gifts made in the name of an individual student.
​
That said, you’re welcome to share the name of the student who invited you to give. Simply include this note in the Online Giving text box:
“The student who invited me to give is [STUDENT’S NAME].”
If you have any questions or would like to learn more, we’d love to connect.
