20190828_071948Creation Care Study Program (CCSP) is a Christian organization whose mission is to educate North American university students to become a part of God’s reconciling work on the earth through understanding and caring for creation.

Students live and learn in the town of Kaikōura, New Zealand nestled between the mighty Kaikōura mountains and the azure Pacific Ocean teeming with marine life. CCSP New Zealand is housed in a previous backpackers known as Sky Hi. The campus is a hub of the intentional Christian community life characteristic to CCSP. By exploring New Zealand’s culture, communities, forests, mountains and ocean students gain new perspectives on how biblical faith, ecology and justice inform a sustainable lifestyle.

This blog is a place for students to reflect on their experiences of living in community, share their excitement for the adventures they have, and broadcast the deep lessons they learn both in and out of the classroom.
