Corvoisier Hislop, a 17-year-old senior at Broadview Academy (BVA), is a baptized member of the North Shore Seventh-day Adventist Church in Chicago, Ill.

Corvoisier spent his freshman and sophomore years at North Shore Junior Academy, where he was the drummer in the school’s band. He is now a vital part of BVA’s music department, where he is a member of the concert choir. Corvoisier also enjoys sports, and is especially talented in basketball as a shooting guard.

Corvoisier knows the power of Christ in his life, and starts each day in personal time with the Lord. When faced with the possibility of having to attend another school and leaving his friends at BVA behind, Corvoisier and his buddies sought the Lord’s help. He witnessed the power of prayer through the miracle-answer that was supplied. He and his friends are together again, and he is preparing to graduate this spring from BVA with an excellent grade point average. Spending his entire academic experience in church school helped Corvoisier to grow into the Christ-centered young man he is today.

Upon graduation, Corvoisier will attend Andrews University where he plans to study physical therapy.

Rachel Shaw is also an 18-year-old senior at BVA. Her father, Steve Shaw, is pastor of the Casper (Wyo.) Seventh-day Adventist Church.

Rachel came to BVA as a freshman in 2000. She has served as the vice president of her freshman class and president for both her sophomore and junior classes. This year, she holds the offices of Girl’s Club president and Student Association social vice president.

Music is an important part of Rachel’s experience in academy. She is a member of the Eternal Ring handbell choir, joining when it was reconstructed in 2003.

During Rachel’s sophomore year, her roommate was an exchange student from Korea. Her new friend did not believe in God or understand a person’s relationship with Someone unseen. That year, Rachel began praying for her roommate and desired to live her life to reflect Christ’s image. Today, her friend is requesting a Bible for her birthday, baptism is in the near future, and her mother attends a Seventh-day Adventist church in Seoul, Korea. Rachel has learned the power of prayer and the faithfulness of Jesus Christ.

Upon graduation, Rachel plans to attend Andrews University to prepare for a career in dentistry.
