[Scotland Campus in Years Past]
Scotland Campus’s Chapel of the Nations is was formerly known at SSVC as the Allfaith Chapel. It was dedicated in 1970, and this depiction of it in an old calendar was
accompanied by this caption: “This beautiful building for public worship is set apart
with the proper atmosphere for true religious ritual, non-sectarian religious training
and church services. The first resident chaplain appointed was Reverend Faust
Hissong. Since 1942 the alumni pastor has been Reverend Charles Kerr, Class of 1942.”
Today, the Chapel of the Nations is used regularly for Sunday and chapel services for
Scotland Campus residents and guests, as well as a venue for events hosted on
campus.

January at Scotland Campus was
full of exciting challenges as we
faced off with the snowstorm.
Luckily, our facilities and security
staff rallied round and kept everyone safe as we all started the long
work of digging out of the snow!
What a blessing to have a great
cooperative community here.

Meet A New GVCS Student:
Jonghee Han
Interviewer: Hong Min
Q1. How did you get to know about the GVCS Pennsylvania campus at Scotland Campus?
Jonghee: I've been attending school at GVCS’s Eumsung
campus and heard the news about the Pennsylvania campus
there.
Q2. What made you come here?
Jonghee: I wasn't sure, but I thought I could accomplish my
dream here.
Q3. How is your school life?
Jonghee: I don't know yet because I'm a new student!
Q4. What is a strength about GVCS at Scotland Campus?
Q5. Our school has a rule that states that
students are not allowed to leave this campus
until they stay a year here. Do you still want to
attend this school?
Jonghee: Yes, I think is worth it to stay here
even though we're not allowed to go to Korea for
one year, because I think I will improve my English
skills.
Q6. What do you want to achieve while attending the school?
Jonghee: I want to become a global Christian
leader who interacts with ten billion people around
the world.
Q7. How would you describe this school in short
sentence?
Jonghee: A place that educates people to
become true global leaders.
Jonghee: I think the best part of this school are the
good relationships between underclassmen and upperclassmen.
Meet A New GVCS Student: Hyeyoon Kim
Interviewer: Jaewon Nam
Q1. When did you came to GVCS and why?
Hyeyoon: I came to GVCS in 2015, because before I came here, I
had too much stress about studying and going back and forth
between school and academy.
Q2. Why did you came to USA campus?
Hyeyoon: I came here partly because I wanted to be able to
attend an international school when I go to high school. I also came
here to improve my English skills and study investments.
Q3. What is this school’s advantage?
Hyeyoon: After I came here I got to know my old friends (who
came here together) better, and also I made new friends and get to
attend a club that is related to my future dream.
