From the President

Advent is a time for reflection and joy. During this season that formally begins the Christian year, we give thanks that the Word became flesh and dwelt among us. In this spirit, I want to express my gratefulness for God's goodness to the InterVarsity community over so many years.

Although Alec Hill came to InterVarsity in 2001 as a professor and business school dean, he also has a background in missions. He served as a Regional Director with World Relief. This helps shape his perspective on Urbana.

I first fell in love with the Ethiopian people in my late twenties. As a Regional Director for World Relief, I led a team that resettled hundreds of refugees escaping from the communist regime in their homeland. So when I learned that our Fellowship was sending 11 students and two staff to Addis Ababa for a six week Global Project during the summer of 2009, I jumped on the opportunity.

There are few things in life that excite me more than the planting of new InterVarsity chapters. I love the fact that mission-focused risk-taking staff are taking the Gospel to new groups of students and faculty across the nation.
