"DBSP '09 was life changing! It was the first time I really got away from home and God began to become more real and personal. You're literally, physically taken out of your comfort zone and that's when God feels most powerful. He proves himself faithful over and over in the smallest of situations. Living in the El Caribe is awesome compared to what I thought it would be and the beach is right outside your door, which is very nice on reflection night. The people are amazing and you'll form close relationships you never expected."--Adria Kersey, Eastern Kentucky University

"All I have to say is that if you are even considering going, just apply, and see what the Lord does from there! While you are in Daytona, God does so many things that are just absolutely amazing! You are taught how to share God's word effectively! You will be out of your comfort zone at first, but once you see God do something, you won't care to be out of your comfort zone!"--Rachel Sammons, Marshall University

 "The fellowship at DBSP was like nothing that I have ever experienced in my life!  The people that I meet this summer were some of the most uplifting, encouraging, amazing Christians that I know and these friendships have continued to deepen even after the summer ended.  My DBSP friends will always have a special place in my heart! God completely transformed my life this summer.  There is not really any area of my life that was not touched in some way by something that happened in Daytona and because of that, I came back to Western with a real fire and passion to do God's will on my campus!  DBSP '05 was truly the best summer of my life!" --Melissa Eades, Western Kentucky University

"DBSP was an amazing opportunity to grow in my faith by learning from the experiences we had as well as from the staff and other students.  The relationships built and memories made will be with me forever."--Chris Limpach, North Carolina State University

“DBSP was a life changing experience and the best summer of my life, but it is not something you can explain.  You have to experience it for yourself.”--Haley Smith, Western Kentucky University 

"DBSP helped me to go back to my campus equipped because I was able to spend the summer growing my faith in an environment that was similar to my life at college, but at the same time was completely focused on my walk with God."--Dan Newman, Virginia Tech

"When I went on DBSP '05, I didn't really know what to expect from God.  He showed up in a really big way and rocked my world through answers to prayers, the chance to be used so much by Him, and the chance to encounter some amazing people.  With His hands on my summer, I gained a deeper value for intimate friendships--especially with my roommates--and a stronger desire to seek Him through prayer and His Word.  I could never have imagined some of the amazing ways He showed me His love and strength and I could never measure how much He taught me."--Kyah Lark, University of Wisconsin-Stout

"DBSP helped me realize that evangelism is more than just participating in organized outreaches; it is a lifestyle."--Rachel Mueck, North Carolina State University

 "DBSP was a wonderful experience and God challenged me in ways I never have been before.  Also, I will never forget the awesome sisters and brothers in Christ that I met there!"--Aubrey Trefz, University of North Dakota

"Nothing can stretch you, grow you, or change your life like summer project can! Jesus does great things in Daytona Beach. Best summer of my life. Period."--Janna Salyers, Marshall University
