This summer senior Beth Arnold will spend eight weeks traveling and studying in seven countries. Along the way she’ll visit Haiti, Dominican Republic, and South Korea. Read all about her adventures at http://seminaryglobetrotter.blogspot.com/ and please pray that the Lord will bless her trip and the people she encounters
A native of Mercer, PA, Beth graduated from Ithaca College and began her physical therapy career thereafter. She worked for three years before being called to the Seminary. Beth will complete her M.Div. studies this fall and plans to pursue God's call wherever that may take her.
Beth’s travel is made possible by the Seminary’s Valentour World Travel Fellowship. Louis F. Valentour, after whom the scholarship is named, passed on his passion for travel to his children and grandchildren and to students who received travel scholarships he established through a successful architectural career. One student from both Carnegie Mellon University (from where Valentour graduated) and the Seminary receive travel scholarships each year. Valentour served as president of Valentour English Bodnar & Howell, Registered Architects retiring in 1993 after more than four decades of service. He passed away in 2006 leaving his family with memories of his many world travels.
