Description

Heaven came to Andrews from her home country of South Korea and began studying for a biology degree. Acting on conviction she changed her major to education, only to discover the additional schooling this would require was something her family could not afford. So back to biology she went, abandoning her dream of becoming a teacher—for now.

As her decision wavered back and forth between education and biology, she made plans to return to South Korea to teach English for a year and earn money to hopefully return to Andrews and complete a degree.

That’s when a miracle happened.
