Elinor Hnidza is a second-year student at Alma College in Michigan. She is originally from Midland, Michigan, just about an hour's drive from campus. After attending her first conference last year, she is eagerly looking forward to returning with her family this year. When home, Elinor lives with her parents, Sheryl and Pat, her older sister Abigail, her younger sister Mirabel, and their lively cat, Bitzy.

Recently, while preparing for a Halloween get-together, Elinor received the exciting news that she has been selected for a Summer Service program. Thrilled by the opportunity, she immediately shared the news with her mom. With a passion for travel, Elinor looks forward to exploring a new culture and making meaningful connections with others in the spirit of service.

As Elinor embarks on this adventure, please keep her friends and family in your prayers for their health and well-being, and for cherished moments together in the future.
