During the 2017-18 school year, the resident missionaries on campus, Robert and Teague Myer, hosted AMF's weekly meetings in their home. The Myers, who had lived in Angola, Africa, for six years as missionaries, enjoyed sharing their stories with the students. "It's e hilarating to be a part of AMF each week, to know that Harding students will serve God all over the world," Robert said. "We have a front row seat as students explore and discover how God might use their talents and gifts wherever they go. It's an honor and a joy to be a part of their conversations as their dreams take shape." Senior Kayla Rogers played a huge role in planning AMF meetings and events since her sophomore year. Rogers continually viewed AMF as a sanctuary to focus on God no matter the situation. "It has been in the least, a breath of fresh air, and at best a completely revolutionary heart-transforming time I tol worship our God of every nation," Rogers _said. Senior Morganne Frampton also helped coordinate AMF activities and was a regular attendee of the devotional group. "Through the words of God and stories of others, my faith has been made stronger," Frampton said. " In [AMF], there are some [students] whose dreams and mission extend to the farthest corners of the earth, even to those who do not have access to a Bible in their language." Rogers was also a part of planning 2017's Global Missions Experience (GME), a hands-on mission training seminar that prepared students across the country for international work. "I got to be a part of planning the GME, and I also get co be a part of planning AMF every week," Rogers said. "They have been and are some of the sweetest parts of my college experience." Roger saw her two worlds collide, as other members of AMF contributed to GME. "There have been many wonderful [friendships] formed and grown becau -e of the heart of both of these ministries," Rogers said.
