Snowbird Institute Students

Alyssa Anderson is from Franklin, NC, right over the mountains from Snowbird. She was a SWO camper a few times and then joined the LMNT high school program in 2025. Now, she’s deep into her first year of the SWO Institute:

“I first came to Snowbird as a camper, and I loved the amount of truth that was spoken here and the community that was here, and I never really wanted to leave, so I came to work… I absolutely love the devotion to teaching and learning the Bible and the emphasis put on growing in spiritual community. I am overjoyed to be a part of an organization that aims to spread the Gospel and teach the Bible to as many people as possible.”

Garrison is from Concord, North Carolina, and graduated from high school in 2025. He has attended SWO as a camp over a dozen times, and served on the LMNT team in 2025. 

“I want to enter some kind of teaching or pastoral ministry and I believe God led me to SWO Institute as a first step to grow in that direction.”

Leo Brits is from High Point, North Carolina, and is a Snowbird Institute for the 2025-2026 year.

“I am attracted to Snowbird because I seek to serve and advance the Kingdom of God. I ended up here because I was poured into by my SWO staff members when I came here as a student for 2 years and now seek to give others the same experience. There is a lot about Snowbird that is exciting, especially the Christ-centered culture built here, but I think what compels me to serve is God.”

Solomon is from Dallas, NC and attended Snowbird as a camper for 6 years. Then, he joined the LMNT high school team for the SWO25 Summer and chose to apply for the Institute after that. 

“What excites me about Snowbird is the discipleship, accountability, and the opportunity to grow in my faith, all while being able to serve in the ministry. What compels me to serve in our mission and my role is the opportunity to serve the Lord while being able to spread the Gospel and serve others through doing that.”

Micah Roehm was born in Starke, FL, but moved to the Andrews area a few years ago. He joined the LMNT team in 2025 and then applied to the Snowbird Institute to serve as a student in 2025-2026.

“What excites me the most are the friendships I will make and how much I will grow in my knowledge and faith and maturity.”

Josiah is from Cherokee, North Carolina, and graduated from Andrews High School (Snowbird’s hometown). He never attended Snowbird as a camper, but joined our LMNT team in the summer of 2025.

“I’m excited to mature in the faith and be surrounded by people who will push me towards God. And I really think that Snowbird will help equip me better for wherever it is God is taking me.”
